seven percent of the Earth&#8217;s natural resources, Iran is one of the richest countries in the world.<br \/>\nIran news indicates that the Iranian economy suffers from endless corruption and thousands of social dilemmas.<br \/>\nThe question is, how is Iran&#8217;s capital spent that causes so much suffering for the Iranian people?<br \/>\n\u201cWe may have given $20-30 billion to Syria,\u201d said former MP Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh.<br \/>\nThe regime has also sent 80,000+ Afghan, Pakistani, &amp; Iraqi proxy fighters to Syria, paying them approximately $9 billion.<br \/>\nIranian regime Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif once said the regime paid $35 billion to circumvent sanctions and \u201cit\u2019s not clear where the money is now.\u201d<br \/>\nAccording to the budget deduction report, in 2017, $4.8 billion was distributed among importers who never imported any goods.<br \/>\nSumming up these numbers, at least $70 billion has been stolen from the Iranian people.<br \/>\nThis money is equal to:<br \/>\nCreating more than 4.8 billion stable jobs in Iran<br \/>\n1.5 million standards hospital beds<br \/>\nBuilding 6 million school classes<br \/>\n30-years of cash subsidies for the Iranian people<br \/>\nFree supply of wheat for 20 years means for nine years for all Iranians<br \/>\nWho is to blame for the plight of Iran&#8217;s economy?

Syria,\u201d said former MP Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh.<br \/>\nThe regime has also sent 80,000+ Afghan, Pakistani, &amp; Iraqi proxy fighters to Syria, paying them approximately $9 billion.<br

Syria,\u201d said former MP Heshmatollah Falahatpisheh.<br \/>\nThe regime has also sent 80,000+ Afghan, Pakistani, &amp; Iraqi proxy fighters to Syria, paying them approximately $9 billion.<br
