Tehran, YJC. Member of the Majlis Energy Committee says that things do not resemble a breakthrough in the oil section.
Hossein Amiri Khamakani has said that the lowering oil
production in the past few years and Iran’s failure to keep up with rival
countries in tapping into shared fields has nothing in common with an economic breakthrough.
He said that an economic breakthrough takes realistic
officials on the executive stage and said "The current economic circumstances
of the country, partly due to sanctions and international pressure, leave no
place for negligence, laziness, and propaganda in the executive management of
the country.”
Spokesman for the Energy Committee of the Majlis added "Right
now, a lot of work is laid down in different economic sections, especially the
energy section, whose management needs boldness and resolution.”
He believed that propaganda and sentimental approach to
vital issues like energy will leave irremediable effects on the country.
"The bitter, undeniable truth regarding oil and gas, and
especially shared fields, is our standstill and obvious, meaningful deceleration
in contrast to neighbor countries. If we look carefully, maybe one of the most
important instances for the economic breakthrough slogan to be realized is to
accomplish the unfinished projects and make up for the delay the country
suffers in this section,” Khamakani stated.
He asserted "Although we heard a lot propaganda by the
government in the past 8 years, especially about services rendered to the
people, the propaganda comes with a lot of distance from the realities of the
country. The obvious reduction in oil production and lack of concern for it in
the past years is a good point in case.”
