Iran reconsidering FATF accession to smooth international relations
Hazrati pointed out the government’s commitment to transparency in major projects, such as the discussions around internet filtering and car imports, which involved extensive debates among supporters and opponents.
He also addressed the country’s energy imbalance, noting that $6 billion from next year’s budget has been allocated for gasoline imports, despite Iran being one of the world’s largest oil and gas producers.
The shortage of 20,000 megawatts of electricity, expected to rise to 25,000 megawatts next year, leading to frequent blackouts, is another critical issue that needs urgent resolution, he raised the alarm.
Hazrati stressed that resolving the country’s problems cannot be achieved through conflict.
