Parvaneh Salahshouri, a member of Iran’s Majles, said in a speech before the Majles that was published on Telegram on December 9, 2019 that the recent demonstrations in Iran have been mostly carried out by young people who want jobs and good lives. She accused the government of having abandoned most of the public and she criticized the Expediency Council, the Guardian Council, the National Security Council, the Virtual Space Council, the Council for Cultural Revolution, and the Joint Tripartite Council for having overlapping authority and for shunning responsibility. She expressed criticism of the fact that the Majles played no role in recent events even though it is supposed to represent the people and she said that the decision makers in Iran’s “less-than-ideal” government are out of touch with the people. Calling on the Majles to serve the public, Salahshouri said that she cannot accept the killing of young Iranians, even if they might have been infiltrated by foreign influence. She added: “Let us believe this is the end of the cold season and not its beginning.”
