A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on October 10

The top story in today’s newspapers was a meeting between Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and IRGC Chief-Commander Major General Mohammad-Ali Jafari, where the two sides underlined the unity between IRGC and government in countering the enemies.

The meeting was mainly focused at showing Iran’s solidarity ahead of an expected decision by US President Donald Trump to blacklist the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps as a terrorist organization. Iranian papers today, and in recent days, widely covered Tehran’s reaction to the possible move.

Newspapers also covered the remarks made by Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli Larijani in response to President Hassan Rouhani’s criticisms. Rouhani had lashed out at the Judiciary for arresting and summoning government officials and political activists, and Ayatollah Larijani stressed that the Judiciary is fulfilling its duty.
