Rezaei to publish a new newspaper

Iranian defeated presidential candidate Mohsen Rezaei has been granted the right to publish a newspaper, named Mellat-e-Ma, meaning 'Our Nation.'

The Press Supervisory Committee agreed with the publication of Mellat-e-Ma along with another newspaper, three monthlies, and 11 seasonal magazines in a Monday session.

Rezaei was one of the four candidates in Iran's June 12 presidential election, which saw the incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad re-elected by a landslide.

Rezaei, Secretary of Iran's Expediency Council, is reportedly associated with the news website, 'tabnak.ir,' as well.
