On Sunday, September 6, Iran’s Economy Ministry said it had established an “Economic War Headquarters” and begun intensifying efforts to address the problems associated with the conflict and sanctions imposed by Washington.

Economy Minister Ali Madanizadeh also promised that economic reforms were coming to address the conditions affecting the daily lives of Iranian citizens.

This series will run for several weeks to commemorate America’s 250th anniversary, and winners will be selected by a reader vote undertaken through our newsletter later this summer.
