Iran Drowns in Darkness: Pakistan Offers Support Amid Energy Crisis

International News: Iran is currently facing a serious energy crisis, causing continuous power cuts across the country and there is a huge shortage of fuel. In the summer season, when the power demand increases by 25%, this situation has become even more difficult. This crisis is extremely disturbing for ordinary citizens.

Report of government claims open

A report from Iran International claimed that the Iran government is making false claims about the energy crisis and trying to hide its failure. According to the report, government officials are assuring that the situation will improve soon, while in reality the crisis is increasing.

Revealed in secret report: Claims of increasing oil production is false

The CEO of the National Iranian Oil Laundering and Distribution Company (NIORDC) claimed an increase in oil and diesel production by the end of 2024, but a secret report exposed the claims. According to the report, there has been no significant increase in production, as the government reported.

Agreement with fuel quality

To meet the demand for fuel, the Iranian government is now compromising its quality. The report states that the Iran government is using dangerous chemicals, some of which are banned in Western countries. This has not only affected the quality of fuel, but it has also become a threat to the health of the public. According to the government report, only one fourth of the fuel made in Iran meets European standards.

President apologizes

Iran's President Masood Pipeshkian has apologized to the public for this crisis. He admitted that the country is struggling with energy, water, money, environment and other serious problems. However, he also assured to stop these problems in the future, but this apology shows how serious the problem has become and it can increase in future.

Pakistan support

Amidst this crisis, Pakistan has supported Iran. Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamani is considered close to Pakistan's Army Chief General Asim Munir. This stressful situation indicates Pakistan in support of Iran and cooperation from Pakistan.

Economic situation and deep impact on public life 

Iran's energy crisis is making a profound impact on its economic situation and public life. This crisis is a result of the US sanctions and rising electricity demand. The difference between the government's claims and reality, and the failure of measures to deal with the energy crisis has created dissatisfaction among the public.
