 What do we know about the president-elect? How is he likely to govern compared with his predecessor? Well, there will definitely be a contrast between Pozeshkin and the late hardline president, Ebrahim Raisi. He was killed in a helicopter crash resulting in the snap election, but perhaps not quite as dramatic as some Iranians might hope. During the campaign, Pozeshkin laid out a very modest agenda, avoiding any major changes. When he met with student groups, for instance, they were definitely not very impressed.
