Who is Masoud Pezeshkian, the sole candidate in favor of reform?

His recent televised interview, which focused primarily on economic issues without touching on more contentious subjects such as foreign policy, the nuclear program, or the mandatory hijab law, has left many supporters disillusioned as the country cries out for change. Critics argue that his avoidance of critical topics indicates a potential alignment with the prevailing views rather than a departure from them if he is to stand a chance in the upcoming polls which follow the sudden death of Ebrahim Raisi in a helicopter crash last month.
