The rial has plummeted against foreign currencies, worsening living conditions. Many Iranians struggle with rising food prices, with meat and fish now considered luxuries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Zarif previously stepped down in August 2025 after just 11 days in office, citing differences with Pezeshkian over his conservative cabinet. However, he later returned to his role \u2014 now only to resign once again amid the latest political turmoil.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/iranian-vp-zarif-resigns-economy-213315712.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yahoo is using AI to generate takeaways from this article.
