Ahmad Alavi, a university professor and economist, said that the increase in the dollar rate is the result of structural problems in the economy, reduced exports and imports, and disruption in foreign trade, and that as long as these conditions continue, the currency market will remain unstable.

He added that disruption in maritime trade and restrictions on alternative routes have reduced imports of goods, raw materials, and machinery, and have contributed to intensifying inflation and rising prices. According to him, the devaluation of the national currency and the increase in the prices of goods reinforce each other, and this trend will continue until economic and political conditions change.
