Masoud Pezeshkian has won Iran’s run-off presidential election, a vote count showed on Saturday.

The newly elected president later claimed that he owes Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, for his support that resulted in Pezeshkian’s victory.

His campaign did not propose radical changes to Iran’s Shi’ite theocracy and he has acknowledged Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as the final arbiter of all matters of state.

Ayatollah Khamenei said: “I would like to recommend that Dr Pezeshkian, the elected president, put his trust in God, the Compassionate, and set his vision on high, bright horizons.”
