A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on June 16

Newspapers on Thursday continued to discuss the ongoing issue of unemployment in Iran, citing the newly-released unemployment rate of 11.8%, which shows a slow increase compared with previous years.

A closed-door meeting between Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and his US counterpart John Kerry was also widely covered by many newspapers.

They also focused on a landmark deal between Iran and the US giant plane-maker Boeing, based on which 100 passenger planes will be sold to Tehran after the US government’s green light.
