On Sunday, the Iranian regime’s Majlis hastily impeached Reza Fatemi Amin, the Minister of Industry, Mines, and Trade in Ebrahim Raisi’s government<\/a>. The decision came mere days after Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei pled with officials to stand united. This is further proof of the regime\u2019s deepening crises. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This impeachment follows Raisi\u2019s decision to oust two cabinet members<\/a>, the Minister of Agriculture and the president of the Planning and Budget Organization, on April 15. In contrast to the Ministers of Education and Labor, who had resigned, the two recently dismissed members refused to exit “voluntarily.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Fatemi Amin was seemingly impeached due to corruption in his Ministry. During his impeachment session on Sunday, new facts about the regime\u2019s corruption were revealed. MP Naser Mousavi Largani said: \u201cCitizens dream of having an ordinary life. But we have a long list of corrupt people and groups affiliated with your ministry. We have been told not to reveal their names, to prevent any damage to the system\u2019s reputation.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Yet, some damning facts, including Fatemi Amin\u2019s bribe to some MPs, were exposed during the increasing infightings. According to the state media, he had given dozens of SUVs to the parliamentarians to get a vote of confidence. But that\u2019s just one example of corruption.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWhy did you lie about 13% economic growth? How could you deceive the parliament and make the president lie in front of the Supreme Leader?\u201d MP Lotfollah Siahkali said, trying to whitewash Khamenei and Raisi\u2019s hands and blame their lies on Fatemi Amin.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cHow do you claim you are combatting corruption and Mafia when the price of the useless Pride vehicle is skyrocketing? Even by using the 500,000 rials dollar exchange rate, the real price of many low-quality cars is 3 billion rials, not over 10 billion rials. Who profits from this price difference? Who devours people\u2019s wealth? Who has their hands deep into people\u2019s pockets?\u201d MP Sarah Falah said, yet avoided referring to systematic corruption.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Acknowledging systematic corruption was totally against Khamenei\u2019s recommendations made on April 22. \u201cA very important strategy is to avoid sidelines and rumors created by the enemy. When there are rumors about an official\u2019s [misdemeanor and corruption], don\u2019t try to repeat or bold them,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Ebrahim Raisi\u2019s Cabinet: Sign of the Regime\u2019s Deadlock #Iran<\/a> #ProsecuteRaisiNOW<\/a> — NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) August 27, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
