Hooshang Amirahmadi is leaving the U.S. for Iran to register as a candidate in Islamic Republic's upcoming presidential elections, according to an academic source.
Amirahmadi is the president of the American Iranian Council, which has tried to improve relations between Islamic Republic and the U.S.
Mr. Amirahamadi who holds American passport in an interview with Farda Radio mentioned, there is no reason for Guardian council to reject his candidacy since he has never done anything against Islamic Republic.
