Hassan Firouz-abadi – who has the second highest military rank after the Supreme leader – ordered Ahmadinejad to stop stirring up public dissent in his recent speeches.
Ahmadinejad said of the regime in a speech in the city of Haftgal on Monday: “They send me messages that if I cross the line, they will deal with me.”
Firouz-abadi has now said that Ahmadinejad should cease uttering these kinds of ‘unacceptable’ comments, the Fars news agency reported.
