Unemployment rate in Iran worst among oil-rich countries

Jobless IranNCRI – The unemployment rate in Iran under the ruler of the clerical regime is twice the average among the top 10 oil-rich countries in the world, according to a state-run news agency.

Khabar Online, which is affiliated with Ali Larijani, the regime’s Majlis (Parliament) Speaker, wrote, “The average unemployment rate in the world’s top 10 oil-producing nations is about seven percent, due to oil revenues, which is about half of the rate in Iran.”

Khabar Online wrote that while the three figures of the rate of unemployment, GDP, and economic growth are high in the 10 largest oil-producing countries, Iran scores among the worst among these nations when it comes to these criteria.

Iran is tenth, ninth and sixth when it comes to the rate of unemployment, GDP and rate of economic growth, respectively.
