Iran’s State-Run Media: Rouhani’s Charter of Human Rights Is Demagoguery

NCRI – Following announcement of the so-called “Charter of Citizens Rights” by the Iranian regime’s president, Hassan Rouhani, he is now facing widespread attacks and criticism by the rival faction and even his own band.

In factional feuding in this regard, on December 20 state-run Javan Newspaper, affiliated to Rouhani’s rival faction, wrote: “The honorable President yesterday unveiled a Charter (of Human Rights) that is demagoguery and projective (escape forward) from head to toe. While millions of people live below poverty line due to mismanagement of economy and social damages are getting close to crisis, Mr. Rouhani has sent a text message yesterday about the Charter of Citizens Rights to all Iranian citizens!”

“The President’s SMS message has reached 11 million people who live in slums (and are excluded from the society) and 11 million unemployed and 12 million unmarried youth as well as hundreds of thousands university graduates who have no jobs a few months before the presidential election. And of course, those who don’t have a mobile phone like 4 million children who don’t go to school and are deprived of education did not receive the message and the president has no message or even no SMS for them,” Javan Newspaper continued.

The Newspaper then called all Rouhani’s actions bureaucratic and theatrical and wrote: “In such circumstances where people are faced with extreme high prices of all basic and essential goods, does any room remain to address and display ‘farce and on paper’ Citizens Rights? Are the Citizens (Civil) Rights essentially different than these same issues? Do the people, whose pockets become emptier every day, need this bureaucratic and on paper Charter of Citizens Rights? Does it solve any of their problems?”

Javan Newspaper concluded by calling Rouhani a demagogue and wrote: “There is no news about following up the people’s main demands and addressing society’s basic and fundamental problems… At a time when millions of Iranians are caught in the social and economic hardships incurred as a result of the wrong policies of the state, the head of government unveils a useless and repetitive bureaucratic (on paper) text called Charter of Citizens Rights!”
