A look at Iranian newspaper front pages on Nov. 30

IFP has taken a look at the front pages of newspapers on Sunday and picked headlines from 16 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.

The international news story that made front-page headlines in Iranian dailies on Sunday was the ruling of an Egyptian court that dismissed all charges against the toppled Egyptian ruler Hosni Mubarak, his interior minister and sons Alaa and Gamal [charged with corruption] over the killing of protesters during the 2011 uprising.

Remarks of First Vice-President Eshagh Jahangiri at the induction ceremony of the new minister of science, research and technology came under the spotlight too. The refusal of Hossein Alizadeh, an Iranian musician and composer who is known as the master of tar, to receive France’s Chevalier of Legion of Honor also drew the attention of dailies, as did the presence of Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif in a closed-door parliament session to brief MPs on what went on in Vienna nuclear talks.

Abrar-e Eghtesadi: “The peace of foreign currency market has been shattered by [falling] oil prices. The Iranian currency is down 1,600 rials against the greenback.”
