Iranian Reformist Front (Jebheye Eslathalabane Iran) was officially founded yesterday in Jamaran, Khomeini's historic house near Tehran.
The founding meeting elected Behzad Nabavi as an interim head since he is oldest.
And also 5 people as a committee to draft the IRF's by-laws
The five are:
1- Outspoken Tehran MP @mah_sadeghi
2- Faraj Komijani, politician with a base in an official teachers union
3- Ali Bagheri (low-key politician)
4- @MansooriAzar , noted reformist politician
5- Rouhani's ex-VP @mowlaverdi
Some more pictures of the meeting.
The next meeting of the group is on Wednesday and will be held virtually.
The top question remains whether and who (and how many candidates) to run for the coming #IranElections2021
The founding statement says the reformists will run a single candidate agreed by all reformist parties but only if elections are to be "free, legal, competitive, just and constitutional"... which is obviously not what's going to happen!
The founding statement also includes big demands like call for a referendum to revise the constitution. But as usual these big words aren't followed by any actions.
