  • Voters in Iran are going to the polls in a run-off election to choose a successor to late President Ebrahim Raisi, who was killed in a helicopter crash in May along with the foreign minister and other officials.
    The two contenders are Saeed Jalili, 58, a hard-liner who is a former negotiator with the West over Iran's contentious nuclear program, and Masoud Pezeshkian, 69, a heart surgeon and reformist politician who was health minister from 2001 to 2005.

      ​@@serebii666Lol, yes Labour did get less votes than in 2019 & 2017 under Jeremy Corbyn but Starmer is hailed the hero. Lovely when people don't vote like myself. It gives the captured media something to cheer about as most of society nor do those reporters understand what inflationary money supply is or how does the money supply affect the economy.

      According to official figures(whose legitimacy can be questioned), the first round had a %39 turnout, the second round had a turnout of %49,6. These figures are very low within the context of the elections in Iran, since 2017 presidential election had a %73 turnout

    الصناعات الالمانية تنحدر الى الهاوية والالمان يراقبون المشهد من بعيد - للاسف قادة ألمانيا الحاليين يفتقرون إلى شي اسمة ((الرجولة)) وهو أن لقب الرجل يا سادة لا يستحقه كل إنسان. الرجولة مسؤولية و صفة قد لا تتوفر عند كثير من الناس لأنها تتطلب صفات خاصة أهمها أن يكون الرجل متحلى بصفات الفارس، و الفروسية هنا لا تتعلق بمن يركب الخيل بل المروءة التي أقصدها هي أن يقلد صفات الفارس النبيل. رجل الفروسية والشجاعة - الرجل صاحب السيادة يتخذ قراراتة الوطنية لصالح وطنة - ويملك قرارة الوطني. وهذا مايفتقدونة حالياً الالمان
