TEHRAN (AFP) – Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Sunday backed President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s government and called for an end to the crisis within the ruling conservative camp, state television said.
“While there are weakness and problems … the composition of the executive branch is good and appropriate, and the government is working. The government and parliament must help each other,” Khamenei said.
“When a law is passed, the government must implement it with full power and without any excuse,” Khamenei, who has the final say in the Islamic republic, told the Iranian parliament.
