Sunday that he will run against the hardline incumbent, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, according to Iranian

media reports."I declare that I will stand for the next elections," Khatami told reporters on Sunday, according to

Iran's state-run news agency, IRNA.

election. He had said either he or former Iranian Prime Minister Mir Hossein Mousavi would run as the

reformist candidate in June.
