A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on November 1

The top story in all Iranian newspapers today was the visit of Russian President Vladimir Putin to Tehran, which is mainly aimed at expansion of economic relations between Iran and Russia. Putin also plans to meet the Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and attend a trilateral meeting with Iranian and Azeri presidents.

The remarks by IRGC Chief Commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari about the range of Iranian missiles, which encompasses all US bases in the region, also received great coverage.

The disqualification of Sepanta Niknam, the Zoroastrian councilor-elect of Yazd, based on a decision by the Guardian Council also remained a top story. Several newspapers continued covering the reactions to the disqualification.
