Fraction of Turkic regions (Persian: فراکسیون مناطق ترک‌نشین) is a cross-factional parliamentary group in the Iranian Parliament, established in October 2016 by Iranian Turkic representatives.[1] This fraction formally claims to have 100 parliamentary members, however privately its members have admitted to have only 60 of overall 290 parliament members within their faction.[2] Masoud Pezeshkian has been selected as leader of fraction and Nader Ghazipour and Reza Karimi as 1st and 2d deputy respectively.[3][4]
