IFP has taken a look at the front pages of Iranian newspapers on Thursday, March 15, and picked headlines from 18 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.
The top story in most newspapers today was the resignation of Tehran’s reformist mayor, Mohammad-Ali Najafi, for what he called a new medical problem. However, City Councillors say the pressures on Najafi, particularly after trying to reveal the past corruption cases and attending a controversial ceremony where young girls were dancing, were perhaps the main reason for his resignation.
US President Donald Trump’s dismissal of Secretary of State Rex Tillerson also remained a top story, with several newspapers discussing the possible outcomes of the replacement.
Remarks by Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araqchi about Iran’s withdrawal from the nuclear deal in case of US’ pull-out also received great coverage today.
Iran’s new oil deal with Russia and German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s re-election were among other top stories highlighted in today’s front pages.
