Majlis Move Provocative
Analysts believe that the Majlis ratification, which they consider to be provocative and politically motivated, will undermine the country's peace and security.
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei has repeatedly warned the officials that factional fighting would serve none but the enemies.
At the time when the Iranian people are facing many economic and social problems, the different factions should join hands to solve these problems rather than make things more difficult for the people through escalation of their factional wrangling and political bickering.
The Expediency Council (EC) recently performed very well by arbitrating between the Majlis and the Guardian Council in a dispute over six points of difference in the next year's budget bill. Thus, it paved the way for the final approval of the bill, in which the government has given priority to improving the economy and raising the living standards of the underprivileged.
The Majlis is expected to invest its energy in exploring the best avenues of helping the government to fight poverty, corruption and discrimination in society instead of fanning factional disputes by taking such provocative moves.
The people who voted for the Majlis deputies expect their representatives to work for national interests instead of using the "House of Nation" just to get even with their political rivals and settle their political accounts.
