Hojjatoleslam Ansari said that thank God and in light of the wise guidelines of the Supreme Leader, the Government of Hope and Prudence endeavored to create a dramatic cut in inflation.

Ansari said that 44 percent inflation ruined the national economy, but, the government of President Hassan Rouhani brought the economy to 4.4 percent growth from minus growth, reports IRNA.
