Iran Presidential Election, Masoud Pezeshkian Victory
Reformist candidate Masoud Pezeshkian, a cardiologist and former health minister, won the Iranian presidential election runoff. Pezeshkian campaigned on a platform of diplomatic engagement with the West and reviving the 2015 nuclear deal to lift economic sanctions. However, analysts note that his power remains limited under the authority of Iran's supreme leader and the clerical establishment.
