Rouhani says riot-hit Iran cannot allow ‘insecurity’
TEHRAN, Iran — Iranian President Hassan Rouhani says that Iran cannot allow “insecurity” in the face of rioting after two days of violent demonstrations against a gasoline price hike.
“Protesting is the people’s right, but protesting is different from rioting. We should not allow insecurity in the society,” Rouhani tells a cabinet meeting, quoted by his official website.
