\nThis editorial focuses on dual attitudes of fundamentalists towards Iran\u2019s foreign policy regarding Turkey. Fundamentalists in Iran have welcomed Major General Mohammad Baqeri\u2019s recent trip to Turkey. However, when Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif visited Turkey authorities, the very same fundamentalists accused him of friendship with a government that was active against Iran in Syria. Such contradictory attitudes towards Iran\u2019s foreign policy by fundamentalists is both strange and debatable.
\nThe editorialist notes that all over the world, countries\u2019 foreign ministries determine implementing foreign policy. Different tribunes, such as those of Friday mass prayers, however, unfortunately decide Iran\u2019s foreign policy. Nowadays, some fundamentalists consider themselves as people\u2019s representatives in many domains, even foreign policy. And this is happening in spite of the fact that people, by their votes, declared they endorsed JCPOA and interaction with the world. Fundamentalists nonetheless seek revenge by unreasonable meddling in foreign policy or denouncing it.
\nAs for Major-general Baqeri\u2019s latest visit from Turkey, it cannot be denied that military officials of different countries hold meetings throughout the world. Yet such meetings need to be regarded as a mission; a mission that must be introduced by the foreign ministry.
\nAn editorial in “Aftab Yazd” on Wednesday, August 23, 2017 <\/span><\/p>\n
\n
\nThis editorial elaborates on the rationale behind President Hassan Rouhani\u2019s silence over the arrest of his brother, Hossein Fereydoun.
\nPresident Rouhani has not interfered in the issue of his brother\u2019s arrest and the charges brought against him for the following reasons.
\nFirst, Rouhani would be entangled in the same problems that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad\u2019s administration once did. At the time, Ahmadinejad wrote a letter requesting to visit one of his relatives who had been detained in Evin prison. People did not believe that Ahmadinejad\u2019s demand was due to his concern over observing the constitution, but found it a political measure of an authority who was merely thinking of himself and his own circle.
\nSecond, if Rouhani had intervened in his brother\u2019s issue, the opposite factions could use it to their own benefit.
\nThird, Hossein Fereydoun needs to defend himself and be accountable if he committed any infringement; and if not, he can surely manage to defend himself without dragging Hassan Rouhani into such chaos.
\nGiven the above-mentioned reasons, the editorialist concludes, Rouhani should continue his silence about the issue, provided that Iran\u2019s judiciary investigates this case fairly and impartially.
\nAn editorial in “Aftab Yazd” Newspaper on Tuesday, August 22, 2017<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
\nIran\u2019s parliament members approved 16 out of 17 cabinet members nominated by Hassan Rouhani. This shows that the 10th Parliament is more willing to cooperate with the government compared to the previous one with whom Rouhani had many problems during the vote of confidence for his last cabinet. At first glance, some might call the recent vote a national triumph, but was it really a victory for reformists?
\nThe editorialist believes that rejection of Habibollah Bitaraf and the Napoleonic vote for Mahmoud Hojjati on one side, and the approval of Abdolreza Fazli Rahmani and Mohammad Javad Azari Jahromi on the other side, shows that reformists have failed. And their defeat is an outcome of Guardian Council\u2019s disqualifying reformist candidates for the 10th parliamentary election. If there were more reformists in parliament, the vote would be different.
\nMoreover, the editorialist hopes the rumors about some ministers\u2019 promises to lawmakers in exchange for the vote of confidence is not true. At the end, Zibakalam stresses that the reformist Omid [Hope] fraction in parliament should do their best to reform election law in the next two years.
\nAn editorial in “Aftab Yazd” Newspaper on Monday, August 21, 2017<\/span><\/p>\n
\n
\nThis editorial is a criticism of Iranian Parliament, including the way its open sessions are held as well as how parliament members act and behave.
\nThe writer pictures a typical session of Iran\u2019s parliament as a place where lawmakers are either talking to each other or have gathered around parliament speaker for raising objections or lobbying.
\nIn the previous administration, since most of President Rouhani\u2019s ministers were criticized for not being agile enough, he promised to replace them with younger candidates. Yet parliament members do not show any sensitivity towards this significant issue these days. Disorder and chaos dominating parliament\u2019s open sessions is a testament to this claim. To exemplify, the editorialist refers to the way MPs change their views in the last minute, or parliament speaker keeps asking MPs to stay in their seats. Not to mention lawmakers\u2019 taking a selfie with EU foreign policy Chief Federica Mogherini which brought the parliament into disrepute both in Iran and abroad.
\nOn the whole, this editorial urges parliament members to act better during sensitive situations, such as when giving a vote of confidence or reviewing qualification of ministers. Parliamentarians should know that each time they do not raise their hands or raise them untimely, they become responsible before the Iranian nation.

\nMember of the board of directors of Tehran City Council Mohsen Pirhadi said that even though Tehran\u2019s population shows no increase in past 10 years and it is still 8.5 million people, the population of people living around Tehran shows a significant increase, thus becoming a serious problem. Pirhadi added that there are 4.5 to 5 million people living around Tehran, which can be considered as a serious problem. He said these people live somehow around Tehran, using this city\u2019s infrastructure and services.

\nWith 18 political prisoners on hunger strike in Iran, Amnesty International has issued a statement saying that conditions of political prisoners in Rajaee Shahr Prison in Karaj are so bad that prisoners had to launch hunger strike for their basic human rights.

\nIn their assessments of Omid [Hope] Fraction in the Iranian Parliament, reformist figures and activists strongly slammed the performance of this fraction in the parliament. They stressed that any blow they receive in next years will be because of the performance of Omid [Hope] Fraction in the parliament, adding that those who are in Omid list are after their own personal interests.
\nCriticisms against Omid [Hope] Fraction mounted when Bitaraf, the proposed candidate for Energy Ministry, could not obtain a vote of confidence in the parliament.
