Iran’s new parliament displays the regime’s economic deadlock
The second week of the Iranian regime’s new legislature was marked with more infighting among officials of rivaling factions, something that has become a hallmark of the Majlis (parliament). But while regime officials were divided over many matters of state, they all agreed that the country’s economy is in shambles. Further driving the point was the presence of economy minister Farhad Dejpasand, who became the target of MPs for the underperformance of his government.
Dejpasand made it clear during the hearing session that even if oil prices return to their pre-coronavirus levels and the regime manages to export oil as before, the government will still need to rely on “other sources of income,” by which he mainly means taxes on the public.

How is Iran’s wealth spent under Khamenei & Rouhani
Iran news indicates that the Iranian economy suffers from endless corruption and thousands of social dilemmas.
The question is, how is Iran’s capital spent that causes so much suffering for the Iranian people?
“We may have given $20-30 billion to Syria,” said former MP Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh.
The regime has also sent 80,000+ Afghan, Pakistani, & Iraqi proxy fighters to Syria, paying them approximately $9 billion.
Iranian regime Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif once said the regime paid $35 billion to circumvent sanctions and “it’s not clear where the money is now.”
According to the budget deduction report, in 2017, $4.8 billion was distributed among importers who never imported any goods.
Summing up these numbers, at least $70 billion has been stolen from the Iranian people.
This money is equal to:
Creating more than 4.8 billion stable jobs in Iran
1.5 million standards hospital beds
Building 6 million school classes
30-years of cash subsidies for the Iranian people
Free supply of wheat for 20 years means for nine years for all Iranians
Who is to blame for the plight of Iran’s economy? You be the judge.

“The Iran wealth, is under the control of IRGC must be wrested out of them” :MEK Resistance Units
The Iranian Resistance Units, a network of activists of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) across Iran, organized various activities that are louder calls for regime change on Saturday. The MEK Resistance Units’ activities reflect the deep resentment of the Iranian people toward the entire regime and all its icons. They bravely took to graffiti in public places with the slogan “The Iranian people’s wealth, which is under the control of the IRGC & Khamenei must be wrested out of the mullahs’ control,” “Rise up to overthrow the regime of the Supreme Leader,” and “Down with Khamenei, Viva Rajavi.”

Iran’s new parliament displays the regime’s economic deadlock
The second week of the Iranian regime’s new legislature was marked with more infighting among officials of rivaling factions, something that has become a hallmark of the Majlis (parliament). But while regime officials were divided over many matters of state, they all agreed that the country’s economy is in shambles. Further driving the point was the presence of economy minister Farhad Dejpasand, who became the target of MPs for the underperformance of his government.
Dejpasand made it clear during the hearing session that even if oil prices return to their pre-coronavirus levels and the regime manages to export oil as before, the government will still need to rely on “other sources of income,” by which he mainly means taxes on the public.

Iran: Coronavirus Death Toll Exceeds 50,000 in 325 Cities
• Deputy Minister of Health: If we are careless, the number of victims may reach two hundred and three hundred thousand
• Asr-e Iran daily: Coronavirus has produced more Iranian victims than the Iran-Iraq war, but it is silent, and this is where we are deceived. We have entered the second wave of Coronavirus, and more deaths are on the way, more than in military warfare
• Mrs. Maryam Rajavi: The loss of lives in these dimensions was preventable. The death toll in Iran is incomparable to other Middle Eastern countries. Khamenei and Rouhani are directly responsible for the growing number of victims and must be held to account

How is Iran’s wealth spent under Khamenei & Rouhani
Iran news indicates that the Iranian economy suffers from endless corruption and thousands of social dilemmas.
The question is, how is Iran’s capital spent that causes so much suffering for the Iranian people?
“We may have given $20-30 billion to Syria,” said former MP Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh.
The regime has also sent 80,000+ Afghan, Pakistani, & Iraqi proxy fighters to Syria, paying them approximately $9 billion.
Iranian regime Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif once said the regime paid $35 billion to circumvent sanctions and “it’s not clear where the money is now.”
According to the budget deduction report, in 2017, $4.8 billion was distributed among importers who never imported any goods.
Summing up these numbers, at least $70 billion has been stolen from the Iranian people.
This money is equal to:
Creating more than 4.8 billion stable jobs in Iran
1.5 million standards hospital beds
Building 6 million school classes
30-years of cash subsidies for the Iranian people
Free supply of wheat for 20 years means for nine years for all Iranians
Who is to blame for the plight of Iran’s economy? You be the judge.

Iran’s new parliament displays the regime’s economic deadlock
The second week of the Iranian regime’s new legislature was marked with more infighting among officials of rivaling factions, something that has become a hallmark of the Majlis (parliament). But while regime officials were divided over many matters of state, they all agreed that the country’s economy is in shambles. Further driving the point was the presence of economy minister Farhad Dejpasand, who became the target of MPs for the underperformance of his government.
Dejpasand made it clear during the hearing session that even if oil prices return to their pre-coronavirus levels and the regime manages to export oil as before, the government will still need to rely on “other sources of income,” by which he mainly means taxes on the public.

Iran: Coronavirus Death Toll Exceeds 50,000 in 325 Cities
• Deputy Minister of Health: If we are careless, the number of victims may reach two hundred and three hundred thousand
• Asr-e Iran daily: Coronavirus has produced more Iranian victims than the Iran-Iraq war, but it is silent, and this is where we are deceived. We have entered the second wave of Coronavirus, and more deaths are on the way, more than in military warfare
• Mrs. Maryam Rajavi: The loss of lives in these dimensions was preventable. The death toll in Iran is incomparable to other Middle Eastern countries. Khamenei and Rouhani are directly responsible for the growing number of victims and must be held to account
#Coronavirus fatalities in Iran exceeded 50,000 – This catastrophe and such great loss of lives could have been avoided. The death toll in #Iran and even the official figures could not be compared to the death toll in other countries in the Middle East.https://t.co/R5ycsZOc3K

How is Iran’s wealth spent under Khamenei & Rouhani
Iran news indicates that the Iranian economy suffers from endless corruption and thousands of social dilemmas.
The question is, how is Iran’s capital spent that causes so much suffering for the Iranian people?
“We may have given $20-30 billion to Syria,” said former MP Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh.
The regime has also sent 80,000+ Afghan, Pakistani, & Iraqi proxy fighters to Syria, paying them approximately $9 billion.
Iranian regime Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif once said the regime paid $35 billion to circumvent sanctions and “it’s not clear where the money is now.”
According to the budget deduction report, in 2017, $4.8 billion was distributed among importers who never imported any goods.
Summing up these numbers, at least $70 billion has been stolen from the Iranian people.
This money is equal to:
Creating more than 4.8 billion stable jobs in Iran
1.5 million standards hospital beds
Building 6 million school classes
30-years of cash subsidies for the Iranian people
Free supply of wheat for 20 years means for nine years for all Iranians
Who is to blame for the plight of Iran’s economy? You be the judge.

How is Iran’s wealth spent under Khamenei & Rouhani
Iran news indicates that the Iranian economy suffers from endless corruption and thousands of social dilemmas.
The question is, how is Iran’s capital spent that causes so much suffering for the Iranian people?
“We may have given $20-30 billion to Syria,” said former MP Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh.
The regime has also sent 80,000+ Afghan, Pakistani, & Iraqi proxy fighters to Syria, paying them approximately $9 billion.
Iranian regime Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif once said the regime paid $35 billion to circumvent sanctions and “it’s not clear where the money is now.”
According to the budget deduction report, in 2017, $4.8 billion was distributed among importers who never imported any goods.
Summing up these numbers, at least $70 billion has been stolen from the Iranian people.
This money is equal to:
Creating more than 4.8 billion stable jobs in Iran
1.5 million standards hospital beds
Building 6 million school classes
30-years of cash subsidies for the Iranian people
Free supply of wheat for 20 years means for nine years for all Iranians
Who is to blame for the plight of Iran’s economy? You be the judge.

Iran’s new parliament displays the regime’s economic deadlock
The second week of the Iranian regime’s new legislature was marked with more infighting among officials of rivaling factions, something that has become a hallmark of the Majlis (parliament). But while regime officials were divided over many matters of state, they all agreed that the country’s economy is in shambles. Further driving the point was the presence of economy minister Farhad Dejpasand, who became the target of MPs for the underperformance of his government.
Dejpasand made it clear during the hearing session that even if oil prices return to their pre-coronavirus levels and the regime manages to export oil as before, the government will still need to rely on “other sources of income,” by which he mainly means taxes on the public.

How is Iran’s wealth spent under Khamenei & Rouhani
Iran news indicates that the Iranian economy suffers from endless corruption and thousands of social dilemmas.
The question is, how is Iran’s capital spent that causes so much suffering for the Iranian people?
“We may have given $20-30 billion to Syria,” said former MP Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh.
The regime has also sent 80,000+ Afghan, Pakistani, & Iraqi proxy fighters to Syria, paying them approximately $9 billion.
Iranian regime Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif once said the regime paid $35 billion to circumvent sanctions and “it’s not clear where the money is now.”
According to the budget deduction report, in 2017, $4.8 billion was distributed among importers who never imported any goods.
Summing up these numbers, at least $70 billion has been stolen from the Iranian people.
This money is equal to:
Creating more than 4.8 billion stable jobs in Iran
1.5 million standards hospital beds
Building 6 million school classes
30-years of cash subsidies for the Iranian people
Free supply of wheat for 20 years means for nine years for all Iranians
Who is to blame for the plight of Iran’s economy? You be the judge.

Iran’s new parliament displays the regime’s economic deadlock
The second week of the Iranian regime’s new legislature was marked with more infighting among officials of rivaling factions, something that has become a hallmark of the Majlis (parliament). But while regime officials were divided over many matters of state, they all agreed that the country’s economy is in shambles. Further driving the point was the presence of economy minister Farhad Dejpasand, who became the target of MPs for the underperformance of his government.
Dejpasand made it clear during the hearing session that even if oil prices return to their pre-coronavirus levels and the regime manages to export oil as before, the government will still need to rely on “other sources of income,” by which he mainly means taxes on the public.
