Hassan Rouhani
“People had economic, political and social demands,” said Rouhani.
The counter-protests come after six days of unrest that has challenged the country's clerical leadership.

"We will not seek permission from anyone to defend our country."
WHAT'S HAPPENING
“The world has clearly seen that under Trump, America has ignored international agreements."
Hassan is seen as a pragmatist in contrast to Khamenei and his hardline allies, and officials and analysts have cast doubt on his ability to balance their demands and expectations with those of his supporters.
And President Trump’s backhanded condolences and hypocrisy aren’t helping.
Michael D’Andrea, the man Donald Trump has put in charge of intelligence operations in Iran, invented the so-called signature strike.
It is a tragic mistake to reverse Obama’s opening to Iran at the very moment it is bearing fruit.
