[Iranian Speaker Mocks U.S. Economic Situation, Comparing It to the 1970s] Golden Finance reported on September 28 that Iranian Parliament Speaker Qalibaf stated: Congratulations to the United States for reaching a 5.1% yield on 10-year Treasury bonds—may God bless you. Truly worth celebrating—this is the 'baseline' level for the next two years. You want to drag Iran back to the 1970s? Has no one told you that Iran is not a playground for arrogant amateurs? We will make you relive the 1970s interest rates, along with high oil prices, diesel shortages, and bell-bottoms. Enjoy the nostalgia!
