Bobkin, N.N. The Presidential elections in Iran in 2013
Abstract:
The Iranian people shall elect the 7th President of Iran on June 14, 2013. The incumbent President Ahmadinejad shall
not be able to participate in elections for the 3rd time in a row. The stat is awaiting a new President, whose personality shall
have a considerable impact on the further political course of Iran. This time the support of the spiritual leader Xameneyi
cannot be viewed as a 100% guarantee for a presidential candidate. What is awaiting Iran in these elections? Shall the US
sanctions be able to provoke the mass disturbances? What measures shall President Ahmadinejad take to protect his political
heritage? Should we worry about the “Persian Summer of 2013”? The article includes attempts to respond to these questions
and to give a type of an “early warning”.
Keywords:
political science, international relations, Iran, Ahmadinejad, elections, security, stability, conflict, opposition, the US sanctions.
