Profile of Behzad Nabavi
Date & Place of Birth: 1942, Tehran
Education: Master's Degree in electronics from
Amir Kabir University (former Tehran Polytechnic)
in 1964
Politically, Behzad Nabavi has an interesting
background. He was a member of the National Front
in the early 1960s; later associated with
leftists and Islamic groups; then he formed an
Islamic political group with former members of
the National Front and advocated armed struggle
against the former regime (1970); served 6.5
years in prison (1971-1978).
After the 1979 Islamic revolution Nabavi was a
member of the IRIB supervisory council (December
1979). He also was a founding member of the
Mujahedin of Islamic Revolution Organisation as a
semi-clandestine paramilitary group. In 1980 he
became minister without portfolio for executive
affairs and spokesperson of the government. He
helped establish the National Economic
Mobilization Headquarters assigned to ration
staple commodities following the outbreak of the
Iran-Iraq war and took charge of it (1980-1982).
He also played a major role in Algiers
negotiations with the United States for the
release of Americans taken hostage in Iran and
signed the Algerian Declarations with the United
States on behalf of the Iranian government.
Nabavi became Heavy Industry Minister in 1982 and
held the portfolio until August 1989. During this
tenure he was accused by the conservatives of
mismanagement and corruption but survived 10
motions of no confidence by the Majles from
1980-1989; Deputy Chief of Armed Forces General
Command for Logistics and Industrial Support.
Since 1989, he has been focusing on his political
grouping (Organization of the Mujhahedin of
Islamic Revolution) but has held many positions,
including a member of board of the MAPNA company
and also Chairman of Petropars from 1998 to
2001." Behzad
