Another scene of Iran’s political and economic isolation unfolded
Another scene of Iran’s political and economic isolation unfolded with the major meeting of senior economic officials of the world and the joint discussions of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank in the United States, which was one of the most important economic events of recent months globally. Many countries around the world negotiated in person or virtually about their economic problems and needs with senior officials of international organizations and wealthy countries.
In these circumstances, Iran was absent, and the important and key remarks of the IMF manager at the press conference did not reach Iranian officials, nor did Iran’s severe economic situation, especially the fragile foundations of the finance system built on pyramid trading of the stock market and currency, have a place in the discussions.
This is while numerous countries presented their issues, the food crisis in 48 countries was reviewed in this meeting, the gas agreement between Lebanon and Israel was discussed, and African countries bargained for debt forgiveness.
The serious warnings from senior officials of the two key international economic and finance organizations about financial discipline naturally did not reach Tehran either.
Meanwhile, the Iranian government, in an attempt to calm public opinion amid a peak of internal crisis and ongoing public protests, is recklessly increasing salaries at all levels and distributing money without backing or foundation, and the pyramid structure of the stock market and currency has undermined the value of the national currency.
