All newspapers today covered the almost unanimous vote of confidence Rouhani’s proposed ministers received from the Parliament in the Sunday session.
Some papers, both reformist and conservative, criticized the Parliament for approving so many of Rouhani’s ministerial nominees, but several others welcomed the support and highlighted the heavy burden on his administration’s shoulders.
Another top story was the remarks made by IRGC Quds Force Commander Major General Qassem Soleimani about the dangers of dividing people into reformist/conservatives and those who observe or don’t observe the Islamic dress code.
The above issues, as well as many more, are highlighted in the following headlines and top stories:
