#头条首发大赛#7月5日, the second round of the 14th Iranian presidential election will kick off, 60,000 polling stations have been built, and the pro-American presidential candidate is narrowly ahead of the conservative vanguard Jalili with 936,000 in the first round of the election.
On June 28, local time, four of the six presidential candidates announced by Iran participated in the voting election, while the two candidates who had served as mayor of Tehran and the current vice president fled and did not participate in the brutal competition for the presidency. Former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who had basically no role in running for office, was even deprived of his candidacy under the pressure of Khamenei, and his political life came to an end, with a sigh. He ran and up to 70 percent of the electorate would go out to vote. He could not come out to run, and the Supreme Leader called again, and only 40% of voters went out to cast their votes, setting the lowest turnout in Iran's presidential election since 1979, and slapping the 85-year-old Dizzy Khamenei in the face.
Low turnout also did not translate into a one-time success for the election of a new president. On June 29, the Iranian Ministry of the Interior announced that in the first round of the election, among the 24.5 million votes, former Iranian Health Minister Pezeshkian ranked first, with 10.41 million votes, accounting for 42.5%; Iran's former chief nuclear negotiator, Jalili, came in second with 9.47 million votes, or 38.6 percent, or a majority of the votes. A second round of voting will be held on July 5, and the top two people, Pezeshkian and Jalili, will once again enter the unusually brutal battle for the new president.
Pezeshkian, 69, is a moderate reformer who advocates détente with the United States and can lift the economic blockade and sanctions imposed by the United States on Iran. Khamenei is not optimistic about him. It has long been said that the elected person and the management team cannot be a person who opposes the country or has a favorable opinion of the United States, implying that it is Pezeshkian. Although he has the same personal experience as Ahmadinejad, he comes from a civilian family and struggles to get out of the circle on his own, which will arouse some voters who have a favorable opinion of Ahmadinejad to vote for him. However, in Iran's theocratic country, no one dares to underestimate the power of religion, even if he is lucky to become the president of Iran, he is only the second-in-command of the country.
And Jalili is only 58 years old, in the prime of life, with political experience, and much more international influence than Pezeshkian. He served as Iran's first nuclear negotiator, and he fought with the Americans face to face and defended Iran's interests and dignity. He had worked in Khamenei's office for four years in his early years, and he had a good relationship with Lao Kazakh, and the Supreme Leader's support for him was far greater than that of Pezeshkian, which was a crucial vote, better than thousands of troops. Besides, Jalili served as Ahmadinejad's presidential adviser, and Ahmadinejad is a well-known "anti-American fighter", and Jalili has contributed a lot. He was elected the new president of Iran, and his political management philosophy is in the same vein as Ahmadinejad.
China has long understood that Iran is an important country in the Middle East, a member of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and an observer of the BRICS, and that maintaining good relations with Iran is conducive to the implementation of China's strategic plan, and that China's promotion of reconciliation between Saudi Arabia and Iran is necessary to stabilize the situation in the Middle East and confront the United States and Israel. China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran are the biggest troubles that the United States has encountered in its hegemony in the Asia-Pacific region and the Middle East.
