| Ahmadinejad to address Iranians on cabinet |
| 2009-08-16 |
| The President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is going to address the Iranian nation on his cabinet make-up at a live TV broadcast. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will give further details about his next administration and his possible choices to fill Iran's ministerial posts on Sunday afternoon at a live television broadcast on the state-run IRIB TV 1, the Fars news agency reported. In a letter to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, some 202 Iranian parliamentarians warned the Iranian President about the make-up of his new cabinet as he has so far avoided consultation with the Majlis (Parliament) in forming his next administration. "Your colleagues ... must be practically committed to the constitution and leadership, have revolutionary spirit ... adequate experience and expertise," read the letter. The lawmakers highlighted that Ahmadinejad's ministers must meet these conditions if he wanted their 'maximum cooperation and effort during the vote of confidence' for his ministers. This is while President Ahmadinejad has vowed to make 'considerable changes' to his government, including appointing younger people. He has also pledged to work to improve the economy, stamp out corruption and combat the country's high inflation rate. |
