Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi has died in a helicopter crash. Here's what happens next

 Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has passed on in a helicopter crash with his Unfamiliar Priest Hossein Amir-Abdollahian.


Mr Raisi, 63, rose to control in 2021, taking over as president from Hassan Rouhani.


Trita Parsi, leader VP of the Quincy Establishment for Dependable Statecraft, and Al Jazeera insightful journalist Soraya Lennie make sense of what happens now.

What was next for Raisi? 

Mr Raisi was supposed to turn into Iran's next preeminent pioneer.

Dr Parsi told RN Breakfast this was anticipated to occur in the following couple of years.

"It's probable thus, this political decision will be effective," Dr Parsi said.

The ongoing preeminent pioneer is Ali Khamenei, who has been the second incomparable head of Iran starting around 1989.

This followed his own administration somewhere in the range of 1981 and 1989. He is 85 years of age.

Who is in charge in the meantime?

The country's first vice-president, Mohammad Mokhber, dominates, with the affirmation of the preeminent pioneer, who has the last say in all questions of state.

Mr Mokhber, similar to Mr Raisi, is viewed as being near the preeminent pioneer. He turned out to be first VP in 2021 when Mr Raisi was chosen president.

From here, a board comprising of the main VP, the speaker of parliament and the top of the legal executive should organize a political decision for another president.

When do they have an election? 

The political race should happen in 50 days or less.

Dr Parsi said this present circumstance was "uncommon" in Iran.

"This is whenever a sitting president first has passed on," he said.

Before Mr Raisi's demise, the following official political race was because of happen in 2025.

"It comes at an exceptionally terrible time for the public authority," Dr Parsi said.

"The public authority is disliked, energy among the populace is at a record low."

Furthermore, taking into account what occurred in the 2021 political race, Dr Parsi predicts this one will have a low turnout.
