Elsewhere in his remarks, Azari Jahromi pointed to the cultural, political and social aspects of digital transformation in the country and added, “currently, the capacity of social networks has reached such a high level that Iranian foreign minister is sanctioned in order not to allow people and politicians in other countries listen his voice through cyberspace.”
To change lifestyle, planning should be made in order to take advantage of cultural opportunities, ICT minister added.
