00:00:11But with the same estimate that was sampled, in the National Bank robbery, etc., the number
00:00:1520 billion was reached, but I definitely say that considering the other
00:00:18numbers that are being kept secret, besides the safekeeping box, the
00:00:22estimates are definitely higher. Just in one estimate that you, for example,
00:00:26referred to, 20 billion was just from sampling the box.
00:01:00We had many challenges, for example, with gasoline, and we spent a lot of money on
00:01:03importing gasoline. The amount was 5.5 to 6 billion dollars. This number
00:01:07is much higher. The question here arises: why did it seem a bit
00:01:10late, meaning why didn't this happen
00:01:13sooner? As you
00:01:17mentioned, the idea of collecting household currencies
00:01:21was an idea that was always brought up, but there was a consideration
00:01:25that still exists, and that is if you, because in
00:01:28fact, the source. It's not an easy task.
00:01:32Any tool-making
00:01:35might actually create a new demand for buying currency, and
00:01:39we can't be completely sure that these currencies are really being accumulated from
00:01:42household currencies or from the black market. Maybe
00:01:46the answer now, how now? I wanted to ask you, that is, in
00:01:50the next question I wanted to ask this: do you think after this
00:01:52fund, well, it might be difficult to estimate, but well, do you think
00:01:56what effect will it have on the rate in the informal market and so on? As
00:02:00you say, there might be pressure to buy, considering that it also has currency profit,
00:02:04or might the things that companies have in people's hands
00:02:07come? The Central Bank manages this issue with a
00:02:11ceiling. That is, we actually manage this with a ceiling that we consider for
00:02:15the entire fund package and for each fund,
00:02:18in a way, so that it doesn't
00:02:21impose too much demand on the market,
00:02:24and also, our expectation is that after
00:02:27trust is built, because the key idea of this package and
00:02:31this tool is trust. If public support
00:02:35is gained and people are assured that their resources are safe
00:02:38in this fund and it also generates profit, then certainly a large
00:02:42part of the currency that is actually invested in these funds is truly
00:02:46currency that is currently unproductive and stagnant. We
00:02:50are not concerned about this. As I said, we manage this issue with a ceiling.
00:02:53We observe the investment conditions
00:02:56of the funds, and based on that, the next decision is made. That is,
00:03:10on the ceiling of the subscribed units, how much it is, what restrictions exist
00:03:13for buying and selling, how it works? Let's see, the size
00:03:16of the fund for the start of subscription
00:03:20is seen as 10 million dollars, but
00:03:22the license that the Central Bank has considered for
00:03:25the ceiling of each fund is 50 million dollars. That is,
00:03:29we start with 10 million US dollars of subscription,
00:03:32and the license up to 50 million dollars
00:03:36is with the Securities and Exchange Organization, meaning it is at the disposal of the Securities and Exchange Organization. After
00:03:4050 million dollars, again, in fact, the
00:03:43issue must be raised in the Central Bank's currency commission,
00:03:46and then, in fact, if that
00:03:49kind of plan that perhaps the Central Bank and
00:03:53the Securities and Exchange Organization actually had, as Dr.
00:03:57Shahraei mentioned, if they have achieved that,
00:04:00then certainly with the talks that have taken place, the Central Bank will not
00:04:04impose any ceiling restrictions. For example, people want to buy
00:04:07now, what are the restrictions?
00:04:11Each unit of this fund, each investment unit of this
00:04:14fund is 10 dollars, and
00:04:17any natural or legal person can invest
00:04:20100 dollars in this fund, in fact, in the fund subscription
00:04:24or in the fund. The ceiling
00:04:28that is considered for each person, whether natural or legal, is up to 5%
00:04:32of the total value of the
00:04:35fund's units. Each person can actually invest. That is,
00:04:39there is no difference between natural and legal persons, companies, etc. No, there isn't. So, if we consider
00:04:43the first 10 million dollars as the
00:04:46ceiling of the investment funds, each natural and
00:04:49legal person can invest up to 500 thousand dollars in this fund
00:04:53without restrictions. How can those outside the country, those who are outside the country,
00:04:56what can they do? I mentioned, they can, of course, through
00:05:00currency transfer. That is, the issue that they have, they apply through currency transfer
00:05:03to the currency operations manager and the portfolio manager,
00:05:07and the issue of registration and transfer
00:05:10of their resources is done through the registration manager. Currency
00:05:13operations are actually carried out. Thank you, Mr.
00:05:16Iranshahi. Please tell us, in addition to currency funds,
00:05:19what new tools are generally available in the capital market, and what plans
00:05:23are you making to, as I said, bring your presence in the direction
00:05:27of people bringing their investments, their small amounts of money, what we are talking about now?
00:05:31Well, we have designed
00:05:35more than 18 types of investment
00:05:38funds in different classes to meet the needs
00:05:43of investors with different risk tolerances.
00:05:46We can cover them. In addition to the funds we currently have,
00:05:50which, as I mentioned, have more than 4 thousand billion Tomans in them,
00:05:53the newest fund that we are launching
00:05:57and whose regulations we have approved and announced
00:06:00is the private finance fund. It somehow
00:06:04helps finance small and medium-sized enterprises
00:06:07through investment in small
00:06:10and short-term Murabaha
00:06:14papers and crowd financing. Part of the
00:06:18financing that is used to support small
00:06:21and medium-sized enterprises is actually happening through this fund. Therefore,
00:06:24one of the
00:06:28funds that we will have in the near future in the
00:06:32capital market is this type of fund, and
00:06:35there was talk about oil deposit certificates. Can these
00:06:38enter the capital market? Are there plans for these or not? Mr.
00:06:42Yes, well, the oil deposit certificate market has actually been
00:06:46on the energy exchange in previous years, and I know that the energy
00:06:50exchange still has serious plans to develop
00:06:54this area, which requires
00:06:57some regulations and prerequisites, and
00:06:59in the future, if, in fact,
00:07:03those issues and regulations are resolved, we will even see
00:07:07an investment fund that invests
00:07:10in oil deposits. What is the obstacle now?
00:07:13There are some regulatory issues
00:07:17regarding these tanks that
00:07:20are supposed to be deposit certificate warehouses, and so on.
00:07:24There are some regulatory issues that you think
00:07:28can be resolved by when? Can you tell us? No, because
00:07:31the custodian of the
00:07:34deposit is the energy exchange, which is not our unit.
00:07:38Therefore, in general, the tools seem a little bit.
00:07:42New tools. I also asked Mr. Shahraei why it seems to take
00:07:46a long time for regulations, or why both the
00:07:49Securities and Exchange Organization and other institutions that are cooperating
00:07:52with you, such as the Central Bank, proceed so cautiously, making it seem like it takes
00:07:56a little longer than it should. Look,
00:08:00many conditions
00:08:04and, in fact, variables
00:08:07are affected by this issue. Mr. Shahraei mentioned
00:08:11some points. There are also some issues that, after all,
00:08:15it takes time for a tool to be formed, especially in the area
00:08:18of currency, the necessary coordination and concerns
00:08:22that exist, in addition to the fact that, for example, in previous
00:08:25years, we really didn't have assets that
00:08:29this fund could invest in. That is, it's been 2 years now that
00:08:33currency Murabaha papers have actually been issued
00:08:37and launched. Therefore, the currency
00:08:41fund must have an asset
00:08:44to invest in. However, our prediction
00:08:46is that if this fund is successful,
00:08:49in addition to giving other licenses for this type of
00:08:52fund, we will also think about other tools,
00:08:56including currency project funds. This
00:08:59is actually one of perhaps the other
00:09:02funds that can be designed in this area: currency project
00:09:06investment funds that define the project themselves.
00:09:09It's not a fixed rate of, for example, 45%.
00:09:13There, it might be, for example, above 10
00:09:16to 15% of the IRR rates of currency
00:09:19projects, where funds
00:09:22can define projects. The public's resources need
00:09:26this fund to actually be launched.
00:09:30Trust-building discussions are also important.
00:09:34How much do people trust this tool and
00:09:38see the reception, then we can proceed. Yes, and it is necessary that
00:09:42perhaps the regulations, because we didn't have
00:09:45experience with some issues, must
00:09:48be amended, and the relationship
00:09:52that we have with the Central Bank, thank God, needs us to hold
00:09:55more joint meetings, but I don't think
00:09:59it's something very far-fetched, and it can
00:10:20that we tried to start with small
00:10:23amounts to build
00:10:27trust among people. The supervisory and
00:10:30executive pillars of this fund
00:10:32are designed in a way that
00:10:36they can eliminate the issue of distrust and
00:10:39build trust. Look, for the pillar
00:10:43of this fund, we came up with a joint framework for the liquidity
00:10:47manager and the registration manager. Their work is complementary.
00:10:50In fact, if the burden is to be
00:10:53lifted from the liquidity manager who is obliged to provide
00:10:57liquidity, it is that the registration manager, a strong
00:11:00registration manager, can market well to
00:11:03attract new investors, and investors who want to exit this fund
00:11:07will be provided with resources from the inflow of new
00:11:11funds. This process is actually
00:11:14designed in such a way that the issue of liquidity
00:11:18and the concerns are resolved. We have tried to maximize
00:11:21transparency. And
00:11:25finally, our effort and wish
00:11:28is that this tool helps gather
00:11:31resources in foreign currency,
00:11:35which helps develop the foreign currency project. How many other funds? Say this briefly,
00:11:39that by the end of the year, we will
00:11:42actually authorize between 4 and 5 new
00:11:46funds. Will you give the authorization, or the Central Bank, which must be
00:11:49involved? A part of the Central Bank, in terms of foreign exchange,
00:11:53is the manager.
00:12:11The goal is for this money to be invested in projects.
00:12:14How much are you pursuing this with this perspective? How much readiness
00:12:18is there in your fund? Well,
00:12:21the group that we are actually active in.
00:12:25Well, we actually had the first experience of issuing
00:12:28foreign exchange Murabaha papers. We had foreign exchange Murabaha papers.
00:12:32Well, we have approximately 300 million euros of foreign exchange Murabaha papers, 320 million
00:12:36euros of foreign exchange Murabaha papers. We currently have approximately one billion dollars of foreign
00:12:40exchange Murabaha papers under review and issuance. All
00:12:44of this is actually a good sign, a great potential.
00:12:48The primary use of these collected
00:12:52foreign exchange Murabaha papers, Mr.
00:12:55Shahraei said, is to finance the country's priority and
00:12:59export-oriented projects and provide working capital,
00:13:10that the general policy of the Central Bank,
00:13:13according to the country's laws and regulations, is that
00:13:16the country's currency should actually be the basis
00:13:20for settling transactions, and settling debts
00:13:23should be done with rials. But this initiative, which was actually
00:13:27considered with the cooperation of the stock exchange, opens a door
00:13:31for a limited number of people who actually
00:13:34generate currency, are exporters, and have no export commitment.
00:13:37Iranians abroad will have this opportunity.
00:13:41But as a general rule, the country should not
00:13:45move towards dollarization and actually have settlements
00:13:49done with a foreign currency. But for
00:13:52a specific group that actually produces currency, there must certainly be solutions
00:13:56to devise a safe and transparent investment
00:13:59so that they can invest their currencies in those
00:14:03conditions, and the Central Bank is ready to expand
00:14:06these currency tools with the cooperation of the Securities and Exchange Organization. Now,
00:14:10the issue of currency crowdfunding for attracting
00:14:14the investments of Afghanistan's children in Iran or
00:14:18Iraq and other countries is on the agenda, and as they mentioned,
00:14:21currency project funds in which people invest.
00:15:38With salutations to the pure
00:15:39soul
00:15:43of the Leader of the Revolution, and with salutations to the pure
00:15:47and sacred spirit of our martyred
00:15:50dear Leader and all the martyrs
00:15:53who in this war and past wars and in
00:15:57assassinations sacrificed their lives
00:15:59for our Iran. Well,
00:16:03as some of our dear ones said, the issues you mentioned
00:16:06cannot be resolved here. We can
00:16:10accept your representatives
00:16:13to be present wherever you want
00:16:16to be present, whether
00:16:19in
00:16:21the various places you have now suggested. I have written them
00:16:24down so we can sit and discuss how we can
00:16:28manage and solve these problems.
00:16:30I consider it my duty to, after all,
00:16:34deal with the problems in the country.
00:16:37And now, Dr. says that every day in the government, with our managers,
00:16:41we have some unpleasant moments,
00:16:44but ultimately, we must truly be able to solve
00:16:48the problems of our dear people, the dear people.
00:16:51Now, you who are our employees and have worked
00:16:55and toiled, all those who live in this land.
00:16:57It is the duty of my
00:17:00government to think of them.
00:17:03They must be able to live a peaceful
00:17:06life. Their concerns should be as
00:17:10minimal as possible. And
00:17:13we are also making efforts. Now, if the meetings become private,
00:17:17we will sit and discuss what we have done or what you can do for us.
00:17:21Regarding neighborhood orientation and now
00:17:25being the advisor to the governor, if you introduce your representatives,
00:17:28we will fully welcome them to
00:17:31be present in the governorates,
00:17:34in the district offices, and additionally,
00:17:37in the neighborhoods. You can definitely help
00:17:40a lot. Now, what our sister did in
00:17:44Gorgan is truly exceptional.
00:17:47It can truly be used as a model.
00:17:50The ground is ready for these works,
00:17:54and we can do this work. Many of these works
00:17:57don't require money. They require empathy,
00:18:00cooperation, and common understanding. We need to
00:18:04find a common perspective to be able to do this work.
00:18:07I am sure that regarding health, treatment, and well-being, we can
00:18:11actually have a special focus on retirees
00:18:14to solve their treatment problems. We also need
00:18:18to hold a meeting. Now, we can make some provisions in the budget,
00:18:22and also in the process of accountability,
00:18:25supervision, and their treatment. Now,
00:18:28we need to sit with our brothers in the Ministry
00:18:32of Welfare and Social Security, and also with the Ministry of Health and Treatment, and
00:18:35even our military
00:18:38forces, our army, to talk and try.
00:18:41When we were representatives, it was decided that retirees
00:18:45would be specially taken care of regarding their health.
00:18:48We struggled a lot with the program,
00:18:51which was supposed to do this and allocate a specific budget.
00:18:54And God willing, we will hold a meeting regarding
00:18:58treatment. Now, if the treatment team is identified, we will definitely
00:19:02do whatever we can. It is our duty to
00:19:04be able to do this work.
00:19:07The problem that is now actually upon us, the
00:19:11work that we are currently
00:19:16pursuing, well, you know better
00:19:19that they are making every effort to force
00:19:22us into submission. That is, these sanctions
00:19:25are different from past sanctions.
00:19:29They have imposed war on us,
00:19:33and they are increasing sanctions day by
00:19:36day. And they also want
00:19:40to increase our internal differences. We
00:19:44are trying. If we help
00:19:47each other, my belief is that we will be able
00:19:50to overcome this situation strongly. But we need everyone's cooperation
00:19:54and empathy. And from the beginning,
00:19:58my whole point has been that with consensus, unity,
00:20:01and cohesion, we can fix our country. The idea that some people imagine
00:20:05they are superior and the best, and the rest. This
00:20:07people,
00:20:10whatever they say, they say nonsense sometimes, although
00:20:13often they say nonsense. But the
00:20:16ongoing situation
00:20:19is that every Iranian who lives
00:20:23in this country, regardless
00:20:26of their position and personality, is
00:20:28respected, and we must be able to benefit
00:20:32from them, to use them. We must truly
00:20:36join hands, regardless of
00:20:38gender, ethnicity, or belief. What matters
00:20:42is the result of the work, which is acceptable. God willing,
00:20:46that structure, that team, should be formed
00:20:50this week, not, for example,
00:20:53to say later because I don't want to make promises that you will
00:20:57like what I say here, but then I can't implement them.
00:21:01We will hold a meeting this week to discuss the specific
00:21:05teams regarding both treatment
00:21:07and the structure of presence in the systems
00:21:10so you can participate. And naturally, you know our situation. If we
00:21:14know yours, we can help each other more easily. And also
00:21:17regarding the issues that
00:21:20relate to livelihood, we now have a plan to, God willing, generally
00:21:24increase the prices and money of the food stamps and so on,
00:21:27and we are constantly thinking about how to do this.
00:21:30Our expert analysis is a bit lacking.
00:21:34Now, I don't want to condemn anyone,
00:21:38but well, our administrative system is
00:21:41an administrative system, meaning it doesn't help
00:21:45us or cooperate with us as it should.
00:21:48Even if they cooperate, because they lack the skill and
00:21:52the vision, we are stuck. Many times, we sit down ourselves
00:21:55and want to solve some issues from scratch.
00:21:58But we will definitely increase the value
00:22:02and quantity of food stamps. We will definitely consider
00:22:06your health and treatment. That is, I promise we will
00:22:10definitely do this. Now, God willing, we will hold a meeting together.
00:22:14We will definitely involve you in the decision-making.
00:22:17God willing, if your representatives are clear, we will sit together for a
00:22:20meeting tomorrow or the day after, or whenever
00:22:24there's an opportunity. If you have decided on that structure together,
00:22:28I will hold the meeting this week, probably on Wednesday or Thursday.
00:22:31We will sit together to discuss how we should manage
00:22:35these concerns, how we should solve the problem. We will hold a meeting
00:22:39and brainstorm to continue this path
00:22:42as much as we can. We are definitely with
00:22:45you. Regarding the neighborhood-oriented group that
00:22:49is interested, I strongly believe in this issue.
00:22:52Just today, before I came here, I called those
00:22:56in charge again and asked, "When do you plan to finally
00:22:59complete the coverage?" We can start from schools,
00:23:03we can start from clinics, our healthcare centers.
00:23:06We can also start from the positions that
00:23:09municipalities have, we can start from mosques,
00:23:13we can start from those charities or those NGOs,
00:23:16non-governmental organizations. All of them can come together.
00:23:20Let's join hands and help each other move forward.
00:23:23And we are also strengthening our programs in this regard.
00:23:27And God willing, with empathy and cooperation
00:23:30with various neighboring countries, we are also improving
00:23:34our relations. They are putting pressure on us, and we are trying
00:23:38to open our own paths so we can work. For
00:23:42essential goods, we have allocated resources. We just need
00:23:45to buy correctly, buy at the right price,
00:23:49buy with quality. Many times, they buy in a way that the price is not
00:23:53what it should be. Well, now who's going to say, "Why are you doing this?"
00:23:57It's unfair. That is, in reality, a product that
00:24:01costs, for example, one toman, they bring us a bill
00:24:04for 10 toman that we have to pay. In this
00:24:07situation, where we should be considerate, some people
00:24:11are taking advantage of this situation,
00:24:14unfortunately. And this is something that,
00:24:18in fact, together. I think if they work together,
00:24:22we will solve it. That is, both regarding livelihood, we have set
00:24:25aside our resources, and we have them. We just need
00:24:28to fix the paths, so to speak, so they come.
00:24:32Regional countries are also having good understandings now. They are cooperating.
00:24:35They have closed the sea routes, but our land interactions
00:24:38and exchanges have increased much more
00:24:42and will continue to increase even more.
00:24:46It's not like that. The reality is that
00:24:48America is threatening. Many
00:24:52countries finally take it into account,
00:24:56or now I don't want to say they are afraid or
00:24:59not afraid. They whisper to us, "Well,
00:25:02we are with you," but they don't dare
00:25:06to do their work, for example. That is, the
00:25:09reality of the matter is that, after all,
00:25:12they exert force. Those who claim human
00:25:15rights and humanity, if you are honest, what
00:25:19do you have to do with people's children, with people's hospitals,
00:25:23with this infrastructure? If you are a man,
00:25:27fight men, not, for example, use tools
00:25:30and technology to do something that deprives innocent
00:25:34people, for example. Now they have closed the road.
00:25:38They want to impose sanctions. Who do sanctions harm?
00:25:41They harm the people.
00:25:43These claimants of human rights who are sitting
00:25:47there, from Europe and America and Iran, who
00:25:50claim to be Iranian and incite these people
00:25:54to do these wrongs, who do they want to pressure?
00:25:56Fairness is a good
00:25:59thing. Humanity. Imam and
00:26:41You have blocked people's way, you come and assassinate these people.
00:26:45You are killing these terrorists.
00:26:47With the technology and power they have,
00:26:51they have created a terrorist government. They assassinate
00:26:54whoever they want.
00:26:56And
00:26:59by the grace of God and with the empathy
00:27:02and cooperation that we will have with you and all the people
00:27:06of Iran, we will both solve our problems
00:27:08with our neighbors and ourselves, and we will not
00:27:12bow down to them, by the grace of God.
00:27:26From this land, the voice of awakening
00:27:29has always been
00:27:32heard. It is the voice of free
00:27:35people who sacrificed their lives
00:27:38for dignity and honor. Azerbaijan
00:27:41is not just a part of the map of Iran. As
00:27:44the martyred Imam said,
00:27:47Azerbaijan is the head of Iran. A head full
00:27:51of passion that has repeatedly
00:27:53sacrificed for Iran. May God grant
00:27:56that I fall into the lap
00:27:59of my homeland, but in times of danger,
00:28:03may I not be a burden on Iran's shoulders.
00:28:06Long live Iran, East Azerbaijan,
00:28:09sacrificed for Iran.
00:28:25Long live Azerbaijan,
00:28:27Iran.
00:28:30With utmost audacity, they put some scrap iron there
00:28:34and say, "These are missiles that Iran
00:28:37gave to the Yemeni fighters."
00:28:40They make an unfounded claim.
00:28:44Well, the Yemeni fighters
00:28:47and mujahideen are besieged. Nothing
00:28:50can be sent to them. If it could be sent,
00:28:54we would have given them 100 missiles instead of one missile.
00:28:58It cannot be. In the resistance issue, the Americans decided
00:29:25to eradicate the roots of resistance in
00:29:28West Asia. They were confident that they would do this.
00:29:39Today, it is proven to the whole world that
00:29:43they wanted to but couldn't, and we wanted to and could.
00:30:28Affairs, in a meeting with the President of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan,
00:30:32Iraq, referring to terrorist activities on the common borders
00:30:36and the enemies' attempts to exploit these circumstances,
00:30:39considered strengthening cooperation essential for border protection.
00:30:43Mr. Araghchi emphasized that our Kurdish friends and
00:30:46regional countries must be vigilant against the false
00:30:49flag tactic, which aims to create differences between neighbors are designed
00:30:53to be vigilant. Mr. Araqchi announced
00:30:56readiness to strengthen relations with this region
