⁨ 🎥 Araz Hasan-Nia, an economic journalist, says in an interview with IranWire TV, referring to economic and livelihood problems in Iran: “The problem with the country’s economy is not a matter of policy; it is political. Everything, in the end, is tied to resolving political issues—especially international politics—but apart from that, in the current situation, nothing should be a higher priority for the government than controlling the inflation rate in the market.”

In another part of the interview, referring to an inflation rate of more than 100% for six consecutive months, he says: “A sharp decline in purchasing power and the fall in the value of the national currency have caused installment living to come to buying everyday items like bread, rice, and meat.”
