Does Iranian Democracy Have More Life Than US Version?
Iranian minister facing impeachment
By Press TV
A group of Iranian lawmakers have delivered a plan to the parliament for the impeachment of Commerce Minister Massoud Mir-Kazemi.
The parliamentarians cited reasons for impeachment as excessive sugar imports that inflicted heavy losses on domestic farmers and producers, as well as a failure to enforce tariff rates set in the country's budget laws for cellphone, sugar and rice imports over the past two years.
The lawmakers also singled out 'wrong' commercial policies leading to instability in domestic market and rise in prices, as well as a failure to regulate the commodity market as other factors for the impeachment.
An impeachment plan for a minister can be submitted to the parliament if it bears signatures of at least 10 lawmakers.
Mir-Kazemi has to attend a Majlis session within the next 10 days.
