"People want change, transformation, and excellence..." Two years have passed since Hassan Rouhani officially began his government with these words; a government that called itself the "Government of Prudence and Hope," with a slogan of moderation and a key as its symbol. The president, less than two months prior, had garnered 18,613,329 votes from Iranians—according to announced statistics—promising to resolve the nuclear dispute, change the discourse of foreign policy, improve economic conditions, and open up the internal political, social, and cultural space. Now, two years later, while it seems that Hassan Rouhani's government has nearly overcome one of the main hurdles in its path with the achievement of a comprehensive nuclear agreement, the sixth-hour program hosted Radio Farda's audience to assess the two-year mark of the government. The program's expert was Morteza Kazemian, a political analyst and national-religious activist.
