New Iranian reformist party elects leader

Ali Shakourirad

ILNA reports that a former member of the Islamic Iran Participation Front, Mr. Ali Shakourirad, has been elected as chairperson of the Union of the Islamic Nation of Iran Party. His runner up was Ms. Azar Mansouri.

The election took place at the Chiefs’ Hall, where the first meeting of the party also was held. Political personalities such as Mohammadreza Khatami, Abdollah Nouri, Mostafa Moein, Mohammadreza Aref and Lotfollah Meisami were also present.

In his speech on Thursday August 20, Shakourirad said: “Today is the day to truly implement the message of the leader of the Revolution in 2013 and even those who are not fond of the Islamic Republic system to vote for the sake of their country.”

The Union of the Islamic Nation of Iran obtained its permit for political activity in March. The participation of several reformist figures in its establishment has already been criticized by several conservatives.

At the convention on August 20, the party’s 30-member executive committee was also elected.

In the course of the 2009 election protests, many reformist political activists including members of the Islamic Iran Participation Front were jailed, and the IIPF was later outlawed.

Conservative factions in the establishment say the new party is a front for the reactivation of the IIPF.
