Iran’s economy has been struggling under the weight of Western sanctions for years, with civilians bearing the brunt of the impact. The country’s new president, Masoud Pezeshkian, has expressed his willingness to engage in renewed negotiations with the West in an effort to alleviate some of the economic hardships faced by his people.
International sanctions have been imposed on Iran due to concerns over the country’s nuclear program and human rights record. These sanctions have severely restricted Iran’s access to global trade and financial markets, leading to high inflation, unemployment, and a weakening currency.
The Iranian government has been working to mitigate the effects of the sanctions through various measures, such as increasing domestic production and seeking alternative trading partners. However, these efforts have been hampered by the country’s isolation from the international community.
Pezeshkian’s statement about reopening negotiations with the West is a positive development that could potentially lead to a lifting of some sanctions and an improvement in Iran’s economic prospects. It remains to be seen whether these negotiations will yield any tangible results, but the willingness to engage in dialogue is a step in the right direction.
As the Iranian people continue to struggle under the weight of sanctions, they will be looking to their new president to deliver on his promises of economic reform and prosperity. It is clear that the burden of Western sanctions falls heavily on civilians, and they will be hoping for a resolution that brings relief to their daily lives.

The west are the real evil, colonizing other countries across continents and exploiting their resources, still they feel like they’re some kind of god.. all dictator will surly fall no matter how long it takes
if there are santions is for someting….becaus is a state who spread hate in middle east. ans everywhere
Qatari Al Jazeera has covered western colonisation extremely well in the Middle East. Thats why it saddens me to know Qatar was one of the main instigators in the plunging of Libya back into the third world, and then reported it in a skewed manner the BBC would be proud of, so in one way you are informing us on the other you oppress your own people
Sponsoring jihadis all over the world will get you sanctioned, whats wrong with that?
