Iran’s presidential candidates outlined their programs as election campaigns began on Monday after the Guardian Council vetted and approved six candidates to run for the June 28 presidential election.
The winner of the race will succeed the late President Ebrahim Raisi who died in a helicopter crash in a mountainous area in northwest Iran on May 19.
Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf on Monday underlined the need for “transformation” in all sectors of the country by means of “cybernetic management.”
Meanwhile, he pointed to the problems that people are facing in their livelihood, vowing to increase their purchasing power.

“We are not going to change the direction and the general policy is stability,” the Reformist lawmaker asserted.
Another presidential hopeful Amir Hossein Qazizadeh Hashemi said on Monday that the state economy should be gradually nationalized through a real privatization process.
