Masoud Pezeshkian is half Turkic and half Kurdish. It is yet to be seen if he can unite the nation which also hosts rebel groups fighting on foreign soil in the name of Tehran. Then there is the issue of overseeing peace in the Caucasus. Being on the good side of Ankara works well on the diplomatic front. The new leader is set to visit Ilham Aliyev. Hopefully Masouds’ transport is reliable under extreme weather conditions.
