A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on May 31

IFP has taken a look at the front pages of Iranian newspapers on Thursday, May 31, and picked headlines from 20 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.

The top story in many newspapers today was an Iftar (fast-breaking) ceremony hosted by President Hassan Rouhani and attended by numerous artists and cultural figures. The ceremony was boycotted by many of the artists who were invited by the president’s chief of staff but declined it to protest against what they called Rouhani’s failure to fulfil his campaign promises and the people’s dire situation. During the Wednesday ceremony, Rouhani said he accepts the artists’ criticisms, but believes that problems cannot be resolved unless all Iranians join hands.

Also a top story was the re-election of Ali Larijani as the Parliament speaker. He managed to defeat his reformist rival Mohammad-Reza Aref, but many pro-reform media described the election as a victory for Aref and the Hope Faction, because the number of lawmakers who voted for Larijani, compared with those in earlier elections, was much lower, and very close to those who chose Aref.

The recent sexual harassment of a number of high schools students in Western Tehran by a school official, and the latest developments in the Korean Peninsula were among other issues covered by newspapers today.

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