Rashidi Kochi, a representative of the parliament, doesn’t understand why importing a mobile phone of such value has caused so much dissatisfaction.
Rashidi Kochi said it’s unclear what’s behind the scenes that creates a difference between giving permission for a $1200 Samsung phone within 72 hours, but not even granting permission for an iPhone. We need to see who the Samsung importer is in Iran. If iPhone imports are eliminated, what will happen? Surely, this will create a monopolistic market. Some hardline individuals who have now been strengthened in the government of Mr. Raeisi and in the parliament, as soon as we raise the smallest question in the parliament, they stand guard and defend certain individuals against the leadership. Why do we harm the country’s system and revolution by making wrong decisions and hiding behind the presence of His Excellency? This type of dangerous perspective is harmful.
