IRNA - Iranian intelligence minister declared support for investors and lauded the private sector's role in resolution of economic problems.


Presence of investors in the economic scene will help to resolution of unemployment and will boost economy, Mahmoud Alavi said on Tuesday.

'Providing security is necessary for private sector's activities,' the official added.

He referred to the recent foreign sponsored unrests in the country and noted that by improving the economic situation, the enemy's plots will be foiled.

Iranians in a number of major cities started to protest against the economic situation and the shortcomings since December 28, 2017, but the protests turned into violence in some parts due to the provocations orchestrated from outside the country.
