Iranians go to the polls on Friday to elect their president. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is running for a second four year mandate but he faces stiff opposition from former premier Mir Hossein Mousavi who has the backing of the reformist camp.
Ahmadinejadas hopes of winning the election
Thousands of young people crowd a square in Tehran, a few hours before the official end of the election campaign. For a while, this was something of a ritual. Night would fall, and a wave of green would flow through the streets. Green being the color of the main opposition candidate Mir Hossein Moussavi. He's the man looking to dash President Ahmadinejad's hopes of winning a second term.
Ahmadinejadas to stance on Iran's nuclear programme
Sensing a strong challenge, President Ahmadinejad has redoubled his own efforts and tried to cut a decisive figure. His supporters appreciate his hard line stance on Iran's nuclear programme. In a recent televised debate, the two rivals swapped heated remarks about the economy the key electoral issue. Over the last few years, inflation and unemployment have rocketed.
New generations hoping for the better future
The new generation want justice in social welfare, work, housing and other areas. So they're waiting for the next president to offer solutions to these economic problems.
