A look at Iranian newspaper front pages on Nov. 29

IFP has taken a look at the front pages of newspapers on Saturday, November 29, 2014, and picked headlines from 16 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.

Iranian newspapers on Saturday were dominated by the Supreme Leader’s speech at a meeting with Basij volunteers on nuclear talks in which he supported the country’s negotiating team, and the decision to extend the talks for seven months. Newsweek’s cover story on Major General Ghasem Soleimani, the commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps’ Quds Force, and his role in crushing ISIS in Iraq appeared on the front pages of several dailies too. Also in the news were the 166th session of OPEC in Vienna and its decision to maintain the current output ceiling, something which sent crude prices tumbling on world markets.
