Topic Reading-Vol.434-6/19/2013

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Iran's Rowhani seeks 'constructive interaction'
With a population of roughly 75 million, the Persian spoken Islamic republic whose president is elected by the public every four years but allowed to be reelected only once has just elected its new president to take office in August.
But who has the supreme power and authority in the nuclear developing nation, which was once called one of the Axis of evil by the former US president? Since their presidential candidates must be approved by the Guardian Council prior to running in order to ensure their allegiance to the ideals of the Islamic revolution which took place in 1979 under Ayatollah Khomeini. Therefore, the President is just responsible for the implementation of the Constitution and for the exercise of executive powers, except for matters directly related to the Supreme Leader, who has the final say in all matters. It sounds a similar to the government of the one-party ruled country, China, doesn’t it?
Enjoy reading and learning about the mighty Persian Islamic country’s new president.
