Political Discussions and Events
In 1998, there were some difficult events in Iran involving several Iranian thinkers and writers. These events led to a lot of public discussion and concern. Many people believed these events were meant to make Iranian reformists, who wanted changes in the country, feel worried.
Ruhollah Hosseinian made several statements about these events. After the Intelligence Ministry said its own agents were involved, Hosseinian claimed that others were actually responsible. He also appeared on a TV program where he shared his views on the situation.
