While outwardly addressing the regime\u2019s president <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/who-is-masoud-pezeshkian\/\">Masoud Pezeshkian<\/a>, it was clear that the real target of the appeals was the ultimate decision-maker, Khamenei.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Speaker of Parliament Mohammad Bagher <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entekhab.ir\/fa\/news\/835017\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ghalibaf set the tone<\/a>, highlighting the nation&#8217;s deteriorating energy and oil sectors. \u201cWe no longer have oil to threaten our enemies,\u201d he lamented, referring to the regime\u2019s past tactics of leveraging oil exports against Western adversaries. \u201cOnce, we could say we\u2019d shut off the oil, but now, with what oil? And to which market?\u201d Ghalibaf admitted that even if production increased, transportation constraints and market access would still hinder Iran&#8217;s oil exports. He also pointed to the country\u2019s energy imbalance, which has disrupted economic growth and reduced government tax revenues from industries. The recent gas shortages, which led to widespread power outages, underscored the severity of the crisis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Economic hardship was further underscored by Parliament member Hossein Samsami, who attributed rampant inflation and a plummeting national currency to the Central Bank\u2019s policies. He warned Pezeshkian that failure to reverse these \u201cdestructive\u201d measures would force lawmakers to invoke legal mechanisms such as impeachment. <a href=\"https:\/\/donya-e-eqtesad.com\/%D8%A8%D8%AE%D8%B4-%D8%B3%D8%A7%DB%8C%D8%AA-%D8%AE%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%86-62\/4127227-%D8%AA%D9%87%D8%AF%DB%8C%D8%AF-%DB%8C%DA%A9-%D9%86%D9%85%D8%A7%DB%8C%D8%AF%D9%87-%D8%B9%D9%84%DB%8C%D9%87-%D9%BE%D8%B2%D8%B4%DA%A9%DB%8C%D8%A7%D9%86-%D8%AC%D9%84%D9%88%DB%8C-%DA%AF%D8%B1%D8%A7%D9%86%DB%8C-%D9%87%D8%A7-%D8%B1%D8%A7-%D9%86%DA%AF%DB%8C%D8%B1%DB%8C%D8%AF-%D9%85%D8%AC%D8%A8%D9%88%D8%B1%DB%8C%D9%85-%D8%A7%D8%B2-%D8%A7%D8%A8%D8%B2%D8%A7%D8%B1-%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%86%D9%88%D9%86%DB%8C-%D8%B3%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%84-%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AA%DB%8C%D8%B6%D8%A7%D8%AD-%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AA%D9%81%D8%A7%D8%AF%D9%87-%DA%A9%D9%86%DB%8C%D9%85\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Samsami revealed<\/a> that the Central Bank had raised the exchange rate for the secondary market (NIMA) by over 50,000 tomans since the beginning of the year, exacerbating inflation.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Regime\u2019s Fear Mounts as <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iranian?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iranian<\/a> Officials Warn of Economic Collapse and Public Outrage<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/eYd3ctUroe\">https:\/\/t.co\/eYd3ctUroe<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy\/status\/1860681023131992173?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 24, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Meanwhile, MP Mehrdad <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ilna.ir\/%D8%A8%D8%AE%D8%B4-%D8%B3%DB%8C%D8%A7%D8%B3%DB%8C-3\/1561796-%D8%AA%D9%88%D8%B6%DB%8C%D8%AD%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D9%88%D8%B2%D8%B1%D8%A7%DB%8C-%D9%86%D9%81%D8%AA-%D9%86%DB%8C%D8%B1%D9%88-%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%86%D8%B9-%DA%A9%D9%86%D9%86%D8%AF%D9%87-%D9%86%D8%A8%D9%88%D8%AF-%D8%AF%D8%B3%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%86%D8%AF%D8%A7%D8%B2%DB%8C-%D8%A8%D9%87-%D9%85%D9%86%D8%A7%D8%A8%D8%B9-%D8%B5%D9%86%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%82-%D8%AA%D9%88%D8%B3%D8%B9%D9%87-%D9%85%D9%84%DB%8C-%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%A8%D9%84-%D9%82%D8%A8%D9%88%D9%84-%D9%86%DB%8C%D8%B3%D8%AA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lahouti criticized<\/a> the government\u2019s reliance on unsustainable financial practices.

At a recent budget review session, Hojjatollah Mirzaei of Iran\u2019s Chamber of Commerce described the country\u2019s dependence on China for oil exports as \u201ca 19th-century colonial trap.\u201d He revealed that<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jamaran.news\/%D8%A8%D8%AE%D8%B4-%D8%A7%D9%82%D8%AA%D8%B5%D8%A7%D8%AF-13\/1650953-%D8%AD%D8%AC%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%84%D9%87-%D9%85%DB%8C%D8%B1%D8%B2%D8%A7%DB%8C%DB%8C-%D8%A7%D9%85%DA%A9%D8%A7%D9%86-%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%85%DB%8C%D9%86-%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%84%DB%8C-%D9%BE%D8%B1%D9%88%DA%98%D9%87-%D9%87%D8%A7-%D8%A8%D9%87-%D8%B5%D9%81%D8%B1-%D8%B1%D8%B3%DB%8C%D8%AF%D9%87-%D8%A8%D8%B1%D9%88%D9%86-%D8%B1%D8%A7%D9%86%DB%8C-%DA%A9%D8%A7%D9%85%D9%84-%D8%AF%D8%B1-%D8%A8%D8%A7%D8%B2%D8%A7%D8%B1-%D8%B3%D8%B1%D9%85%D8%A7%DB%8C%D9%87-%D8%AF%D8%B1-%D8%AD%D8%A7%D9%84-%D8%A7%D8%AA%D9%81%D8%A7%D9%82-%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AA-%D8%AF%D8%A7%D9%88%D8%AF-%D8%B3%D9%88%D8%B1%DB%8C-%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84%D8%AA-%D9%86%D8%B3%D8%A8%D8%AA-%D8%A8%D9%87-%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%84%DB%8C%D8%A7%D8%AA%D9%87%D8%A7-%D9%BE%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AE%DA%AF%D9%88-%D8%A8%D8%A7%D8%B4%D8%AF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> 92% of Iran\u2019s oil goes<\/a> to China at a 30% discount, with Beijing dictating the goods it sends in exchange.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/IranProtests?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#IranProtests<\/a>: Demonstrations Spread Across Provinces Amid Widespread Economic and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Social?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Social<\/a> Grievances<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/dmwkuq9pAM\">https:\/\/t.co\/dmwkuq9pAM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy\/status\/1859337168126357735?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 20, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In its November 25 edition, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ettelaat.com\/news\/72847\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Ettelaat <\/em>newspaper published<\/a> an article titled \u201cThe Government Should Take Its Hands Out of People\u2019s Pockets,\u201d criticizing the relentless rise in costs burdening ordinary Iranians.

This, it concluded, reflects the death knell for productive investment in Iran\u2019s economic landscape.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The regime\u2019s inability to resolve its economic crises and mounting public discontent signals a volatile future. The warnings from lawmakers, experts, and even regime-controlled media are not just cries for reform\u2014they are recognition of a system stretched to its limits. With inflation soaring, the national currency in freefall, and reliance on heavily discounted oil exports to China, the regime\u2019s economic model appears increasingly untenable.
