Mehdi Mahdawi-Azad said in the "Hashmanez" program: "Statistics are sometimes misleading. Cost is one thing and purchasing power is another. "When the price of food reaches a point where the citizens can no longer afford it, that is the limit of hunger and poverty in blacks. He added: "A million students did not go to school because of lack of money. After the war, Iran's economic infrastructure was damaged." Mahadavi-Azad warned: "If the gentlemen do not act, if they do not take or give points, and if the situation does not change, they themselves say that we will face a tsunami of death."
