A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on May 24

The top story in all papers today was the remarks made by the Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei in a meeting with top Iranian officials. The Leader’s comments about the Iran nuclear deal, the lessons Iran must learn from its past experiences, and the conditions Europe must meet to keep Iran in the JCPOA were among the most important parts highlighted by newspapers today.

Several papers also covered the remarks made by Major General Mohammad Baqeri, the chief of staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, about the development of Iran’s defence capabilities regardless of other countries’ stance.

Comments by former US Undersecretary of State Wendy Sherman about the fate of the Iran nuclear deal after the US withdrawal also received good coverage.
