Iran Establishes Economic War Command Headquarters

According to a report by Xinhua News Agency on September 8, Iran's Ministry of Economic Affairs has established an "Economic War Command Headquarters" aimed at centrally assessing economic problems caused by the war and coordinating relevant departments to accelerate the formulation and implementation of solutions. Iran's Deputy Minister of Economic Affairs, Morteza Zamani, stated that the body is housed within the ministry and will initially focus on issues within the ministry's purview, including the impact of the war on business operations, trade, and financing, to expedite follow-up and resolution. For issues beyond the ministry's authority, cross-departmental coordination will be employed. He said the primary mission of the body is to centrally identify war-induced problems and economic operational obstacles, propose actionable solutions, and enhance coordination when multiple departments need to be involved.
