All approvals and decisions made by the Mahmoud Ahmadinejad`s administration after June 13 will be seriously reviewed, Advisor of Iranian president-elect Hassan Rouhani Akbar Torkan said, Rooze-no portal reported.

He noted that some decisions would be annulled if necessary.

Torkan reminded about Ahmadinejad`s letter of 8 years ago which was addressed to the then president Mohammad Khatami demanding to avoid making decisions which will put pressure on the next administration, and added, "we expect Ahmadinejad not to make such decisions in his turn".

Last week Torkan said that he received some reports which made him concerned, as some of the recently signed contracts will put pressure on the new administration.

As part of the recent decisions, Meysam Taheri, the head of the High Council of Iranian Affairs Abroad, was replaced by Morteza Dadkhah.

The Tasnim and Mehr New Agencies have reported that the decision may be related to Taheri's disagreement with Iran's Vice-President Hamid Baghaei over making changes in the council's structure.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has also transferred some lands that belonged to the Tehran Permanent International Fairgrounds to the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting.

Many criticized the move, claiming that the government secured the deal in exchange for the ceremony of gratitude hosted by the IRIB for the outgoing president a day before the transfer was announced.

Even the country's Industry, Mine, and Trade Minister Mehdi Ghazanfari criticized the incumbent president for the move.

Ahmadinejad also transferred Gol Gohar Sirjan's second and third mines to the Social Security Organization to payoff government's debts to the organization.

Torkan earlier this month said that the country's economic situation is worse than previously thought. The next administration's main concern is to provide people with staple foods, he said in an interview with Aseman weekly newsletter.
