Speaking at a cabinet meeting on Sunday, Pezeshkian said the welfare of citizens must remain the government’s foremost priority and take precedence over all other projects and administrative agendas.
The president urged officials to exercise greater care and social awareness in their decision-making and ensure that every policy enacted directly contributes to improving public well-being.
Criticizing the passage of inflationary laws that burden low-income households, the president questioned the rationale behind approving measures that undermine economic stability for the most vulnerable segments of society. He reiterated that any such regulations must be promptly reviewed and amended.
