THE LATEST NEWS – FEBRUARY 11, 2020
IRAN’S CONTRIBUTION TO GLOBAL GDP
The Iranian regime’s Statistics Center released a report on Iran’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the first six months of this year, showing a drop of 7.6 percent, or about 41 trillion Tomans, over the same period last year.
The report also notes that Iran’s GDP, without oil, did not change in the same period last year compared to the same period last year. In other words, Iran’s non-oil economic growth has been zero.
In the first nine months of this year, the activities of the industry and mines group led to a 2.7% drop and the services group a 5.7% drop. The report considers the main reason for the decline in GDP in the industrial sector is the 37% drop in oil and gas extraction, as well as a 35% decline in the value of mineral production in the country, due to the lack of management
According to the IMF’s assessment of Iran’s GDP last year, it has fallen by 4.9 percent and will grow at zero percent this year.
FRANCE CONDEMNS IRAN SATELLITE LAUNCH
On Monday, February 10, France condemned the Iranian regime’s launching of a ballistic missile in a bid to put a satellite in space, reported Agence France Press.
“France condemns this launch which calls on technologies used for ballistic missiles and, in particular, intercontinental ballistic missiles,” the French foreign ministry said in a statement after Iran announced it “successfully” launched a satellite Sunday but failed to put it into orbit.” Reported AFP.
“Iran’s ballistic programme hurts regional stability and affects European security. France calls on Iran to fully respect its international obligations in this matter.”
