Iran’s former president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to run in upcoming elections despite ban

12-05-2021 14:52

Iran’s former president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will run for office again in upcoming elections in June, state television has reported.

Broadcast footage showed Ahmadinejad marching alongside supporters to a registration center at the interior ministry where he filled out forms.

In recent years, he has tried to polish his hardline image into a more centrist candidacy.

The Holocaust-denying former leader was previously banned from running for the presidency by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in 2017 - although he registered anyway.
