=== Biography ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Masoud Pezeshkian (born 29 September 1954) is an Iranian politician and heart surgeon who has served as the ninth president of [[Iran]] since 2024. A member of the reformist faction, he is the oldest person to serve in this position, taking office at the age of 69. Born in Mahabad, West Azerbaijan, to an Iranian Azerbaijani and Iranian Kurdish family, Pezeshkian graduated from the Tabriz University of Medical Sciences with a degree in medicine and served as a doctor for Iranian soldiers in the Iran–Iraq War (1980–1988). Pezeshkian served as governor of Piranshahr and Naghadeh counties and his political career began in 1997 when he joined Mohammad Khatami&amp;#039;s administration as Deputy Health Minister. He served as Minister of Health and Medical Education from 2001 to 2005. He was later elected to the parliament five times, representing Tabriz, Osku and Azarshahr electoral district, from 2008 to 2024. During this time, Pezeshkian was also First Deputy Speaker of the Parliament from 2016 to 2020. Prior to the 2024 presidential election, he enrolled himself in two previous elections, the 2013 election, in which he withdrew, and the 2021 election, in which he was rejected from running. [1]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early Life ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Masoud Pezeshkian was born in Mahabad, West Azerbaijan, on 29 September 1954. His parents, Mohammadali Pezeshkian and Mahboubeh Soudbakhsh, were both from Urmia and had moved to Mahabad for employment before his birth. He spoke both Azeri and Kurdish fluently and was often reported to be of mixed Azeri-Kurdish parentage, although he considered himself and both of his parents as full Turks. In 1973, he received his diploma and moved to Zabol to serve his conscription duty. It was during this time that he became interested in medicine. After completing his service, he returned to his home province, where he entered Tabriz University of Medical Sciences and graduated with a degree in medicine. During the [[Iran]]–Iraq War (1980–1988), Pezeshkian frequently visited the front lines, where he was responsible for sending medical teams and working as a fighter and doctor. He finished his general practitioner course in 1985, and started teaching physiology at the medical college. [2]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Career ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1997, Pezeshkian&amp;#039;s political career began when he joined Mohammad Khatami&amp;#039;s administration as Deputy Health Minister. He was the Iranian health minister from 2001 to 2005. In 2003, while health minister, Pezeshkiyan faced an impeachment vote by the Islamic Consultative Assembly, surviving with 170 votes for him, 60 votes against, and 5 abstentions. After completing his term and leaving the ministry, he resumed his medical career in Tabriz. He was elected to the Iranian parliament in five terms, from 2008 to 2024, representing Tabriz, Osku and Azarshahr. He served as the first deputy speaker of the parliament from 2016 to 2020.

* [1] Masoud Pezeshkian (born 29 September 1954) is an Iranian politician and heart surgeon who has served as the ninth president of Iran since 2024. A member of the reformist faction, he is the oldest person to serve in this position, taking office at the age of 69. Born in Mahabad, West Azerbaijan, to an Iranian Azerbaijani and Iranian Kurdish family, Pezeshkian graduated from the Tabriz University of Medical Sciences with a degree in medicine and served as a doctor for Iranian soldiers in the Iran–Iraq War (1980–1988). Pezeshkian served as governor of Piranshahr and Naghadeh counties and his political career began in 1997 when he joined Mohammad Khatami&amp;#039;s administration as Deputy Health Minister. He served as Minister of Health and Medical Education from 2001 to 2005. He was later elected to the parliament five times, representing Tabriz, Osku and Azarshahr electoral district, from 2008 to 2024. During this time, Pezeshkian was also First Deputy Speaker of the Parliament from 2016 to 2020. Prior to the 2024 presidential election, he enrolled himself in two previous elections, the 2013 election, in which he withdrew, and the 2021 election, in which he was rejected from running. - 1787711241.149486&lt;br /&gt;
* [2] Masoud Pezeshkian was born in Mahabad, West Azerbaijan, on 29 September 1954. His parents, Mohammadali Pezeshkian and Mahboubeh Soudbakhsh, were both from Urmia and had moved to Mahabad for employment before his birth. He spoke both Azeri and Kurdish fluently and was often reported to be of mixed Azeri-Kurdish parentage, although he considered himself and both of his parents as full Turks. In 1973, he received his diploma and moved to Zabol to serve his conscription duty. It was during this time that he became interested in medicine. After completing his service, he returned to his home province, where he entered Tabriz University of Medical Sciences and graduated with a degree in medicine. During the Iran–Iraq War (1980–1988), Pezeshkian frequently visited the front lines, where he was responsible for sending medical teams and working as a fighter and doctor. He finished his general practitioner course in 1985, and started teaching physiology at the medical college. - 1787711241.149486&lt;br /&gt;
