Aref asked officials not to comment on unfinished gasoline decisions
Mohammad Reza Aref, the First Vice President of Iran, emphasized the need for discipline in information dissemination about gasoline and petroleum products, requesting government officials to refrain from making public comments before decisions are finalized.
Aref announced that the official government decisions regarding gasoline and petroleum products will only be declared by the government spokesperson or the CEO of the National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company after they are finalized.
He stressed that statements by other officials on the sidelines of meetings do not necessarily represent the official stance or final decision of the government.
