DOS Expresses Firm Resolve Countering Tehran’s Regional Ambitions<\/h3>\n

\"ned-price-us-state-department-spokesperson-min\"<\/p>\n

At the State Department\u2019s May 5 briefing, spokesperson Ned Price said: “We do share the concern expressed by the Senate about other aspects of Iran\u2019s behavior, including their development of ballistic missiles, support for terrorism through the IRGC, and other elements. And that\u2019s why our administration has actually increased sanctions on Iran\u2019s ballistic missile program and on the IRGC over the past year. There is nothing in a potential return to the JCPOA that would in any way diminish our resolve or our ability to continue combating these aspects of Iran\u2019s policies in the region. If this math is still correct, of the 107 sanctions that we have applied on Iran since January 20th of 2021, 86 of those \u2013 which, if my math is right, about three-quarters of those \u2013 have been on the IRGC. We are committed to doing all we can, pulling every lever we can to take on the threat, together with our partners, from the IRGC.”<\/p>\n

Don’t Play into the MEK’s Hands, State Publication Warns Raisi<\/h3>\n

\"bultannews-iran-mek-small\"<\/p>\n

The state-run website Bultan News wrote<\/a> on April 5: “The elimination of the state fixed currency rate before there is an agreement in place is a kind of dagger to the back of the country. The move, which is one of the 18 deep surgeries listed by the government for economic reforms, is not something to be messed up with. Executing decisions without convincing people is practically playing the enemy’s game. While the enemy is pursuing a plan to destabilize the country, especially in the eastern regions, providing the hypocrites (the regime’s term for the MEK) an excuse for some of their agendas for June and July this year will not help the country’s regional situation in any way.”<\/p>\n

“Let’s not forget that one of the reasons Trump decided to assassinate Soleimani was a sign of weakness that had been sent to Washington since November of that year,” the publication added referring to the November 2019 uprising. “They thought that with the events of November of that year, the state had become very fragile and it is the right time for the final hit!”<\/p>\n

Soaring Prices Will Turn People Against the State, Official Warns<\/h3>\n

\"Ismail-Shakir-the-Iranian-regime-Supreme-Leaders-representative-in-Ardakan\"<\/p>\n

During his Friday prayer sermon, Ismail Shakir, the Iranian regime Supreme Leader’s representative in Ardakan said: “Since the beginning of the year, there have been many complaints about the high prices. In one of the sermons of the holy month of Ramadan, we discussed this issue.”<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Warning how high prices will turn into socio-political crises, he added: “The issue with the soaring prices is not just an economic problem, it affects everyone everywhere. It creates (public) distrust in the state. This fundamental problem must be solved. We have to explain the reasons for the high prices. Unfortunately, this hasn’t been done enough. There is a war going on in the media. When our officials fail to explain these things to the people, others will come and do it. They report on such topics. Satellite networks are really waging a media war today, and we have had casualties in this war as we did during the real war. The casualty here is that people lose faith in the state because they have been watching these networks, using social media and there is a lot of content against the state on the internet.”<\/span><\/div>\n

\"Yousef-Nouri-Minister-of-Education\"<\/p>\n

On April 5, the Iranian regime’s Minister of Education implicitly called the teachers’ protest rallies “illegal” and threatened to “dismiss” those who take to the streets to protest.<\/p>\n

During a visit to the Kurdistan province on Thursday, Yousef Nouri said<\/a> that according to Article 23 of the Administrative Violations Law, “the board may discharge teachers who participate in protest rallies.”<\/p>\n

The threat of teachers being fired comes at a time when a large wave of arrests and subpoenas of teachers in various cities in Iran began just days before the May 1 nationwide rally.<\/div>\n

MP Blames Government for Soaring Prices and Inflation<\/h3>\n

\"Alireza-Pakfetrat-MP-from-Shiraz\"<\/p>\n

According to the state-run website of Ruydad 24, Alireza Pakfetrat, MP<\/a> from Shiraz, said on May 5: “Inflation and high prices are tearing people apart, and this issue has made running the country more difficult than ever. The lack of accountability of governments has led to the height of distrust in society. More and more people are slipping below the poverty line every day. What does that mean? At the same time, prices and inflation are rising, and of course, the government is fueling the inflation.”<\/p>\n

“The government suddenly increased the price of domestic cars dramatically and people do not accept their excuses,” Pakfatrat said and while calling the situation dangerous, he added: “In my opinion, counter-revolutionary forces have penetrated the country’s system. The influence can be traced back at any place, such as trade unions, the cooperative chamber, the ministries, the general administrations, etc., and their goal is to incite the people and create discontent, and there is no other justification.”<\/p>\n

American Lawmakers Tire Of Biden\u2019s Long Push for Iran Deal<\/h3>\n

\"the-new-york-sun-logo\"<\/p>\n

The Senate is demonstrating increasing impatience with President Biden\u2019s attempt to fulfill an election campaign promise to return America to the 2015 Iran deal, with more Democrats and most Republicans urging the plug be pulled on his Iran diplomacy.<\/p>\n

Since at least February administration officials have said that Russian- and European-brokered negotiations with Tehran are time-limited. After a certain point, these officials said, a return to the deal would have no benefits for America and our allies.<\/p>\n

Amnesty International called on the Iranian authorities to immediately stop any plans to execute Swedish-Iranian academic Ahmadreza Djalali.<\/p>\n

President Joe Biden\u2019s bid to revive the Iran nuclear deal flunked its first test in the U.S. Senate.<\/p>\n

A bipartisan super-majority of senators voted late Wednesday to endorse a Republican-led measure stating that any nuclear agreement with Tehran should also address Iran\u2019s support for terrorism in the region, and that the U.S.\u00a0<\/b>should not lift sanctions on an elite branch of the Iranian military, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.<\/p>\n

\"iran-executions-increasing\"<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Under the dominance of the mullahs in the Iranian regime, Iran holds the world record for the number of executions and arbitrary killings carried out each year. Over the past 43 years, the only thing that has not changed is the regime\u2019s brutal behavior with the people and its consistent human rights violations.<\/p>\n

Execution and repression are used by the regime as a means to maintain their sovereignty, and as a tool to deal with the people\u2019s desire for\u00a0freedom<\/a>\u00a0in a democratic country.<\/p>\n
