Tehran Times reports: A senior member of the Islamic Revolution Mojahedin Organization (IRMO) insisted that most members of the reformist front hold a similar opinion that Mohammad Khatami should stand as their favored candidate in the next year’s presidential election.
The reason behind their insistence is Khatami’s unique personality traits, Abdollah Naseri told the Mehr News Agency on Monday.
Almost all members of the Coordination Council of Reformist Front are waiting for Khatami to announce his candidacy, he said, adding that they hope Khatami’s response will be positive.
Stating that the coordination council sets the date for declaring nomination by potential candidates, he said the council’s prediction is that Khatami would announce his candidacy in the near future.
Some reformist groups believe that Khatami will probably announce his candidacy during the Ten Day Dawn marking the anniversary of the Islamic Revolution, Naseri added.
Pointing to the students’ request of Khatami to contest the election as he addressed them at Tehran University on December 15, he said students were among the first social groups who welcomed Khatami candidacy in the previous presidential elections.
