Enemy’s psywar causing sharp fluctuations in forex market: Iranian president

TEHRAN,Oct.3(MNA) -- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that he is confident Iran will successfully overcome the current economic problems. Ahmadinejad made the remarks during a press conference in Tehran on Tuesday in reply to a question about the country’s economic situation and the administration’s plans to curb the rise in prices of basic commodities. The Iranian president said, “The government is involved in the issue at full strength, but it must be noted that economic and psychological warfare is underway, and other branches (of government) should stand by the administration and help the administration with their support. Pointing a finger of blame at the administration does not help resolve the problem.” “I am confident that the Iranian nation will pass through this period successfully. And I ask everyone to support the decisions of the economy and trade ministries so that we can calm the market,” he added. He also said, “Part of these problems are related to economic warfare and external problems, and a large part of it is (due to) psychological pressure, and everyone should help.”
