Iranian presidents since the early 1980s have in essence been expressions of what the supreme leader thought he needed at the time.

He also quickly imposed a crackdown on female dress codes, in a demonstrative turn to a past where his revolutionary credentials — as “the Butcher of Tehran,” responsible for mass executions of regime opponents in 1988 —were impeccable.
