TEHRAN Feb 23(Shana)--Iran’s president has prided on his administration’s success in cutting the inflation rate to below 16% from above 40%, saying it has performed a miracle.

“Economically speaking, as domestic and foreign opinion-makers have written to me, it has been like a miracle,” Hassan Rouhani said.

He said he has lived up to his promise to slash the runaway inflation rate which soared past 40% under his predecessor Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Rouhani also said that his administration saved the shrinking economy to register 4% economic growth during the first half of the current calendar year which started last March.
