A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on December 14

The top story in all Iranian newspapers today was the extraordinary summit of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in Istanbul, Turkey, during which Muslim countries issued a statement on the need to support Palestine. The Muslim states called on the world to recognize East Jerusalem as the capital of Palestine.

Several papers particularly covered the remarks made by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani during the OIC summit about the need to support Palestine in the wake of the US-Israeli plots.

Also a top story was the 10th meeting of the JCPOA Joint Commission in Vienna and the claims by EU Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini about the Iran nuclear deal’s preamble, which was strongly dismissed by Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araqchi.
