A look at Iranian newspaper front pages on Jan 27

IFP has taken a look at the front pages of Iran newspapers on Wednesday and picked headlines from 28 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.

Iran is positioning itself as a regional peacemaker and a global trade partner for international companies and world countries now that the US-engineered sanctions on Tehran’s nuclear agenda are being removed thanks to the historic nuclear deal Iran, the third largest OPEC crude oil exporter, struck with the P5+1 group of countries back in July. As a first move since last week that the sanctions’ removal began, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has started a whistle-blow tour to Europe to seek economic opportunities with the green continent. This grabbed a lot of headlines on Wednesday, January 27, 2016. Moreover, Rouhani’s meeting with Pope Francis in Vatican and the Iranian business delegation accompanying Rouhani also won some headlines as well.

Regarding domestic developments, the Guardian Council, the body responsible for vetting the Islamic credentials of parliamentary and Assembly of Experts hopefuls in the late February elections, announced its final decision regarding the list of qualified nominees that can start their election campaigns across the country. Among the most outstanding hopefuls that took many headlines were Hashemi Rafsanjani who was qualified and Hassan Khomeini, grandson of the founder of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khomeini, was announced disqualified.

Here are the main titles:
