said MP Mohammed-Taghi Nagh-Ali in parliament on Sunday. Ther policies have led to the current economic crisis, which is hardly acceptable for people. "Rohani's rhetorical excuses are no longer acceptable, listening to him is futile, so let's order him in," the MP said,
according to the ILNA news agency. The rapid drop in oil prices has hit Iran hard. The rial has recently lost over 50 percent in value, and many prices have risen accordingly. Many Iranians currently have to pay more than one million rials for a simple supermarket purchase.
The equivalent is 21 euros. Already after their victory in the parliamentary elections at the end of February, it was foreseeable that the hardliners and ore conservatives would overthrow Rohanis and the reformers.
In ther opinion, Rohani, with his pro-western policies and in particular the Vienna Atomic Agreement of 2015, removed the Islamic Republic from its ideological goals. In addition, this policy had brought nothing and led the oil-rich country into one of its worst economic crises.
Rohani vehemently rejects this criticism and accuses the hardliners in Parliament of sacrificing national interests for domestic political struggles. Not the nuclear deal, but
the withdrawal of US President Donald Trump from the deal and the sanctions imposed by Washington would have led to the economic crisis. In addition, there is the #coronacrisis, which has weakened not only the economy in Iran, but also the world over, said the president.
Rohani's second term ends in May next year.
