The main story in all Iranian newspapers today was the remarks made by Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution, in a meeting with a group of Iranian people in Tehran. The Leader talked about various issues, including the idea of ‘national reconciliation’ proposed by certain reformists, the massive turnout of Iranian people in February 10 revolution rallies, and people’s complaints about Iranian official’s weak performance in resolving their issues.
Newspapers also widely covered the one-day trips of President Hassan Rouhani to Oman and Kuwait and his talks with Omani Sultan and Kuwaiti Emir about the resolution of regional misunderstandings.
