Ettelaat Names Iran’s ‘Unluckiest’ President Since the Revolution

Ettelaat newspaper has introduced the unluckiest president since the Islamic Revolution.

According to Saed News quoting Ettelaat, arguably no president or administration has experienced as much misfortune as President Majdian. From the very beginning, when the crisis of the martyr Haniyeh Azizi occurred in Tehran, to the present, when he feels the Damocles sword of the snapback looming over him, misfortune seems constant. Another difficulty for the president is the unprecedented pressure coming from all directions, as if arrows are aimed at him. He may be the only president who avoids confronting or giving harsh responses, seemingly putting his credibility at stake to prevent tension, disputes, or disorder. Many, however, view this approach as inaction, falling short of the display of strength expected from a president.

The newspaper added that its advice for the honest, diligent, virtuous, yet somewhat isolated and oppressed president during Government Week is to demonstrate greater decisiveness against self-serving, greedy factions. He should not revert to old practices, continue compensating financial shortages through money printing and inflation, or merely talk without action. In short, he should take the decisive measures expected of a president during times of economic and imposed war, and not shy away from difficult decisions.
