Ebrahim Savalan, an Azeri writer and civic activist, wrote on his Facebook account after the approval of Pezeshkian's qualifications and the reaction of the Turks: "A passionate public atmosphere has formed in favor of Dr. Pezeshkian. "In just a few hours, nearly five public meetings have been held in support of him in Meshkin. Educators and teachers have also coordinated a large public meeting, and the political activists of the city are coordinating to divide the work of the headquarters among themselves - even those who didn't want to vote until a few days ago." Reza Talebi, a researcher at Leipzig University and a Turk political analyst, said in an interview with IranWire about the approval of Pezeshkian's qualifications: "Dr. Pezeshkian was previously disqualified in the parliamentary elections, and Khamenei said that it should be reconsidered."
