Masoud Pezeshkian may be the only Iranian president to have lived several political lifetimes in a single term.
He took office after a president died in a helicopter crash. His inauguration was followed by the killing of a guest of that ceremony, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. Iran then attacked Israel directly. Hezbollah leader was then assassinated by Israel. Bashar al-Assad fell. War reached Iran. A few months later, protests erupted. Then another war that saw the leadership changing under fire. A new leader was chosen while the country was still at war.
And now, the same president who entered office amid funerals and missiles is signing a peace deal with an American president.
Under Pezeshkian, Iran hasn’t stopped moving from one phase to another.
I welcome with satisfaction the reaching of an agreement between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States of America, which will be signed on Friday, as an encouraging result of patient work in dialogue and negotiation. I express my gratitude to the countries that have worked to facilitate a meeting between the parties and to make this agreement possible. I hope that the agreement may help strengthen mutual trust, security, and stability in the Middle East, promoting paths of dialogue and cooperation among peoples. #Peace
Dear @EriasLukwago_ I don't know the pain you went through in the night when the World was silent. I don't know if you have received treatment as per your Health and I actually don't know what your Family is going through. I pray you hang on and not to back down.
Uganda in 2026! Museveni's son just released a picture of his captive, Advocate Erias Lukwago. Blind folded! His crime? Attempting to serve him court summons! If he can do this to an outgoing Lord Mayor of Uganda's capital city, former MP, and senior lawyer, imagine what he does to our ordinary supporters who are abducted day in, day out. And yet Museveni still has the audacity to say anything about Idi Amin! The world must not look on. There will be accountability for these crimes against humanity. It's only a matter of time.
There are incidents that have shaped the trajectory of our political journey.The abduction of @EriasLukwago_ and the bragging about it by Muhoozi is one such incident.We don’t normally recognize them until much later
Counsel Elias Lukwago was preparing to serve the CDF. Now he has been arrested!
“All persons are equal before and under the law in all spheres of political, economic, social and cultural life and in every other respect and shall enjoy equal protection of the law”
Oh Uganda!
The abduction, this morning, of PFF leader, Hon. Erias Lukwago is absurd. The lawlessness must be condemned by all people of good conscience.
