The Iranian President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad denies being ill, and motivates the cancellation of several official events by saying that he is just exhausted.
Several members of his staff have declared that he is in good state of health, but he is just extremely tired and needs to rest for a few days. That is why he has canceled a few of the events he was supposed to attend these days.
In order to clear any doubt, the national Iranian television has broadcast footage with the president, while he was participating at several meetings during the past weekend.
The president’s political allies told the press that this is only a natural reaction, since he is known to work even 20 hours a day. They insist that he is completely healthy and that he will have no problems to finish his mandate or even to candidate for a new one, in June 2009.
