Iran inflation hits 19.1%

Iranian President Mamhoud Ahmadinejad is facing mounting criticism after the rate of inflation in the Islamic Republic hit 19.1% at the end of last month, reported the AFP. The figures, released by Iran’s Central Bank, represent a 7% increase since Ahmadinejad came to power in 2005. Last week, former President, Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, accused Ahmadinejad of tackling inflation with ’slogans and political games’.
