Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, meeting with Rouhani and his cabinet on Wednesday, told the government to work "day and night" to resolve economic problems.
"We need to be strong in the economic field ... The officials should work hard day and night to resolve the problems," Khamenei was quoted as saying by state television.
