State media in Iran has confirmed that Pres. Ebrahim Raisi died on Sunday at the age of 63 in a helicopter crash in the country's remote northwestern province of East Azerbaijan.
The tragic death of Pres. Raisi and his companions in this helicopter crash has shocked the entire world. Now,While while Iran and its allies mourn his loss, it's also time to remember his legacy. Under Raisi, Iran was able to continue its growth even as America launched a maximum -pressure campaign against the Islamic Republic. Furthermore, at the international leve, he bravely fought Western arrogance and hegemony at the international level to help build a multipolar world.
Though the presidential role in Iran is mostly symbolic, the death of Raisi will likely trigger an internal power struggle within the regime at a time when the country is in complete chaos — with a crisis-hit economy and mired in a regional war, while its main rivals discuss to deepen ties to counter Iran. At home, few are mourning the death of an unpopular leader who was better known for his disdain for human rights.
