A look at Iranian newspaper front pages on September 3

IFP has taken a look at the front pages of newspapers on Thursday and picked headlines from 25 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.

News related to the recently-concluded 18th meeting of the Assembly of Experts and comments by the parliament speaker in an interview with CNN dominated the front pages of Iranian newspapers on Thursday. The support of a 34th US senator for the Iranian nuclear deal also appeared on the cover of dailies.

 

Ettela’at: “Some critical remarks about the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) are unfair and out of obstinacy,” Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said.
