Dlaczego Iran?

[Gość: A.D.]

>>Iran, jeden z niewielu krajow Swiata, ktory nie jest amerykanskim lokajem,
w ostatnich latach osiagnal najwyzszy stopien wzrostu ekonomii posrod krajow
Bliskiego Wchodu i polnocnej Afryki, na tle rozwoju handlu zagranicznego,
inwestycji,reform ekonomicznych i stalych cen ropy naftowej.

>> Tak wiec jest oczywistym ze ten niby slepy upor Ameryki w stosunku do
Iranu, a takze finansowanie ostatnich rozruchow studenckich ma tylko jeden
cel - usilowanie podporzadkowanie sobie Iranu aby nie dal przykladu i
zachety innym krajom tego regionu, ze mozna sobie doskonale radzic bez
amerykanskiej ingerencji w ekonomie i polityke. To wlasnie jest
tym 'niebezpieczenstwem' dla polityki amerykanskiej, ktora kieruje zydowski
kapital.



>>IMF: Iran achieves one of MENA's highest growth rates, outlook favorable


An International Monetary Fund (IMF) mission led by Abdelali Jbili,
assistant director in the Middle Eastern Department, has completed a review
of economic developments in Iran and held policy discussions with the
authorities under the IMF's annual consultations with Iran.

The mission noted that over the past three years, Iran has achieved one of
the highest rates of growth in the Middle East and North Africa region
against the background of increased openness to international trade and
investment, economic reforms and sustained oil prices.

The overall economic situation in 2002/03 was favorable, with high and broad
based real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth, a decline in the
unemployment rate for the first time in recent years, low external debt, and
rising international reserves.

The mission welcomed the progress achieved in economic reform in several
areas, including trade liberalization, the establishment of private banks,
the approval of the foreign direct investment law, the amendment of the tax
law, and the preparation of reforms underway in several other areas.

The prospects for 2003/04 also look favorable and the momentum of investment
and growth of the past few years is expected to continue. The mission noted,
however, that domestic demand pressures stemming from an expansionary policy
stance have intensified, generating rapid growth of liquidity and putting
upward pressure on inflation.

The authorities shared the mission's views on the need for corrective fiscal
and monetary policy actions to keep inflation under control and help sustain
growth under more stable financial conditions. The mission also encouraged
the authorities to accelerate and deepen reforms aimed at developing private
sector activity and enhancing efficiency.

The mission welcomed the important progress made in the area of economic
transparency, including the publication of all IMF reports on the 2002
consultation, the improvement in the budget coverage, and the identification
in the budget document of the implicit cost of energy subsidies.

The mission expressed the IMF's willingness to continue to provide technical
assistance in support of the authorities' economic reforms. —
