Experts Measure Rouhani’s Track Record

In May 2017, Hassan Rouhani, a cleric running on a moderate platform, won a decisive reelection for a second term pledging to open Iran to foreign trade and investment, introduce social and economic reforms and expand personal freedoms. 
One year later, political and economic experts are looking at his performance, both at the home front and on the international stage.
Gholamhossein Karbaschi, a pro-reform politician, says he does not have any "regrets" over Rouhani's reelection because of his effective foreign policy, but argues that the current administration does not have the ambition to find long-term fixes to fundamental problems plaguing the country.
