Welcome to the grand inauguration ceremony of President-elect Masoud Pezeshkian in Iran, set to take place on July 30th at the parliament. According to Iranian lawmaker Mojtaba Yousefi, the event will see the attendance of five presidents and 10 parliament speakers, making it a truly momentous occasion.
The ceremony will follow an endorsement ceremony on July 28th, graced by the presence of Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, along with government and military officials. Pezeshkian’s landslide victory with over 16 million votes solidifies his position as the chosen successor to President Ebrahim Raeisi, who tragically lost his life in a helicopter crash.
The runoff election, which saw Pezeshkian emerge victorious against former nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili, marks a new chapter in Iran’s political landscape. Join us as we witness history in the making at this auspicious event.
