Saeed Jalili considers candidacy in Iran’s presidential election
Saeed Jalili, a member of the Expediency Discernment Council, is contemplating a presidential run, as confirmed by his office.
Reports suggest that individuals with ties to the late President Ebrahim Raisi, who tragically passed away in a helicopter crash, are encouraging Jalili to consider entering the presidential race.
After President Ebrahim Raisi’s passing, Saeed Jalili has emerged as a prominent figure in political discussions, with expectations of a potential successful bid for the presidency if he chooses to run.
Given his close ties to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, Jalili is not anticipated to encounter any veto from the Guardian Council should he decide to pursue candidacy.
