Here are six ministers that Ahmadinejad has nominated so far, but remember they must face the possible difficult challenge of being approved by parliament. He has said he will appoint 3 women and has named two so far. This is an attempt to placate the women of Iran, but obviously won't work:
1. Hojjatoleslam Heydar Moslehi, Ministry of Intelligence
He is a member of the Revolutionary Guard and the director of the State Endowment and Charity Affairs Organization
2. Marzieh Vahid-Dastjerdi, Ministry of Health
She is an associate professor at the University of Tehran and a member of the Morals in Medical Research Committee
3. Fatemeh Ajorlou, Ministry of Social Welfare
She is a conservative Member of Parliament
4. Mohammad Abbasi, Ministry of Cooperatives
He served in this same post during Ahmadinejad's first term
5. Ali-Akbar Mehrabian, Ministry of Industry
He was the previous Ministry of Industry and a loyalist to Ahmadinejad. It is interesting to point out that he was recently convicted of fraud and this could complicate his approval by Parliament
6. Shamseddin Hosseini, Ministry of Economy and Finance
He is a professor of economics
