2024 semi finals and agony in the host nation, germany a spans the their championship. dreams extinguished, the hi melissa chan, welcome voters in iran have chosen a new president. former health minister masoud possessed ken captured well over 2000000 votes over more than his hardline rival and fridays went off. he was the only candidate promising reform allowed to run, but his ability to deliver change in the shadow of a run supreme leader is limited. a new public face of the around leadership reform is low make and must have possessed and will now become the countries next president with his we announced by election authorities. i mean,

i saw, you know, volume based on the numbers. mister masoud possess kia, honest, introduced as the elected president in the 14th presidential election of there is nomics republic, off the wrong a half to the announcement position, posted a statement on the social media platform ex, calling for unity and support from his countrymen. the people who appear on the elections are over and this is just the beginning of our past together. the difficult part ahead of us will not be paved except with your support, empathy and trust. i extend my hands to you and swear by my dignity that i will not leave you alone on this path. do not leave me alone. he can paint on premises of reviving the 2015 nuclear deal with western powers, saying he wants to. and he runs isolation with millions of, of radians, frustrated by the lack of real choice, slightly fewer than half of eligible voters cast ballots. well,

some of his supporters took to the streets to celebrate. the moved into capital has been largely sober. the honestly speaking, i just hope the prices go down and jobs are easily found for young people and that's it. i do not have any other special feelings. i'm happy that mr. busier scan was elected with profess key on the sanctions will likely be lifted and that's very good amount of them unless it wasn't like i'm really not invested because these candidates only make slogans. and when they take power, they do nothing for the people. so i have no feelings for mr. possess can just, you know, the possessed. jen will be taking over a country facing internal divisions, deep economic problems, and growing international by solution with most of the power held by the supreme leader who is unlikely too old or iran scores. despite voters plea for

change. h yelled, as our boss is the head of the doe, these persian service, i asked her how significant my suit possessions victory is for the country women. that's so there's actually only one significance. and the selection is that the romulans made the regime and make the world understand that they did not vote any of this candidates. they did not vote a president what they did for or actually is a kia, know to these allow me republic. let us not forget that over 60 percent of the population and these are official numbers, did not vote in the 1st round and even now, but we can assume that maybe only 15 percent of the population went towards and the machine is very aware of that. so they actually knew that this is kind of a referendum this election, and this is why it was so important to them to, to,

to kind of, you know, gets people to vote. and i think actually it's very likely that the so called performance comes in that that's which is actually a very misleading term. but i come to the house later. that position has been wet to. it's actually only for dance to make people come to vote. but people who go on to not for, for that. um and i think also that the subpoenaed of how many actually position was history as choice. and i think they um, wanted to from the beginning um to have this so cuz the form is candidates as a president. i think that's a great point you make about the so called i also mentioned earlier, more reform minded, right in quotation like, oh so it sounds like there can, there won't be much of a difference with possession in charge or will there be a difference in terms of how he will lead, given the power of the supreme leader. you know,

some domestically nothing will change and people know that you've audience have understood or have, let's say bitterly experienced for the last decade stuff. no matter what kind of so called performer or moderate candidates will become president. nothing will change, not only because they don't have the power to change a lot of things because the, the last, uh, willing decisions are by the supreme either. it's well how many, but only because reform is a parts of the system. they don't want a regina change, so let's maybe imagine it as a requirements and how hard line is being 2 wings of the system and both contribute to keep a, this system live. and so why? the only thing that's why we're, you know, they talking about maybe reformers is that's kind of making a or showing the west that there is some sort of a position which is not the case and runs have understood that right. but in the

west we still think that there must be some sort of difference. so x turn away, how much of a difference will this make on some of the key questions that people are concerned about as well, there is one difference between position and jelly, at least from what he's said, is that he's more open to negotiations with the west where as jelly was saying that we only need russia and china and not the west. so i think that the right now for the economy, which is really not going well and you wrong. and as long as maybe for instance, find them is presidents or it is possible that trump will gets next president. they want kind of gets to negotiate. got it west in the hope of lifting sanctions. but we have to really not forget many people, anyone a very, it's that that's what actually leads a reformers, canada leads to you and the west,

the u. s. for getting the people any wrong fighting for them and live freedom. i'm not, you know, paying to that anymore just to negotiate with this lemma. republic yelled as our bush, thank you so much for joining us. thank you. you as president joe biden has described his recent debate with donald trump as a quote, bad episode and is bound to stay in the presidential race calls were buying to step aside. have been growing since the debate with concerns about his health and fitness for office in an interview with us media binds said only a quote, the lord almighty as he put it could persuade him to drop out. but so far that isn't happening a for your for nancy paul joe biden as an damage control mode. in an exclusive interview with abc news and george stephanopoulos, he once again tries to explain away his poor performance and the debates with
