After Iran's presidential elections aimed at replacing the late President Ebrahim Raisi, who tragically perished in a plane crash on May 19, 2024, concerns have emerged regarding the challenges facing reformist politician Masoud Pezeshkian.

In the aftermath of Iran’s early presidential elections, the nation found itself on the cusp of a decisive runoff, secured eventually by reformist Masoud Pezeshkian.

Iranian reformists are divided over whether to participate in the 2024 elections due to fears of exclusion.
