The CEO of the Central Meat Livestock Union accuses profiteers of raising prices.
In response to a question about the impact of imports on prices, Judge Afshin Sadr, the CEO of the Central Livestock Union, stated that the field visits confirm whether imports have had an impact on prices or not. In my opinion, currently, it cannot have a significant effect, considering the explanations and reports you provided, as well as the expansion of distribution in Tehran and other major cities. Hopefully, they will be able to control this tension.
I would like to mention one point: it is true that the price of live cattle has increased, and as a result, the price of meat has also gone up in the market. However, the main tension in the market is not due to the price of live cattle, but unfortunately, it has been exacerbated by profiteering activities in the market.
