The Iranian rial's exchange rate reached a record low — 1.8 million per $1, according to The Washington Post (WP).
The rial began to fall two days ago and reached a record low today. The fall of the rial will worsen further inflation in the country, where the import of many goods — from food and medicines to electronics and raw materials — depends on the dollar's exchange rate.
