Iran's New President and Challenges Ahead
The chapter explores the election of Masood Pezashqian as Iran's new president and the challenges he may face in bringing significant change, particularly in the realm of women's rights. It discusses the limitations of the president's power in Iran due to the influence of the Supreme Leader and the strict vetting process by the Guardian Council. The chapter also delves into the low voter turnout, skepticism towards the new president's ability to reform, and the exhaustion with both hardliners and reformists in Iran's political landscape.
