Confirmations of Hassan Rouhani's Cabinet

Iran's President Hassan Rouhani said on Aug. 20 that  the top foreign policy priority for his new government was to protect the nuclear deal from being torn up by the United States.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani put forward a new cabinet line-up on Aug. 8 that again included no women, despite criticism of their absence from his reformist allies.

There were no major changes to Rouhani's government, which is expected to continue his push for greater foreign investment and a technocratic approach to reviving the country's stagnant economy.
