A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on January 31

IFP has taken a look at the front pages of Iranian newspapers on Thursday, January 31, 2019, and picked headlines from 12 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.

Remarks by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in Imam Khomeini Mausoleum on Wednesday were widely covered by Iranian papers today, with many of them highlighting his statement that Iran will overcome the US Pressure.

Moreover, a report by US intelligence agencies downplaying Iran’s threat to the US caught significant attention.

The view offered by the report contradicted President Donald Trump’s view on Iran, pushing the incumbent president to accuse US agencies of being “naive”.

The above issues, as well as many more, are highlighted in the following headlines and top stories:
