Iranian newspapers on Saturday covered the remarks made by President Hassan Rouhani about the achievements of his trip to New York. They also covered his speech at the United Nations General Assembly and his efforts to pursue the implementation of the nuclear deal.
The anti-Iran bills passed by the US House of Representatives and its veto by President Barack Obama also received great coverage.

Saeedi was born in 1974 in Tehran. He started photography career when he was 16. He was 18 years old when he went to Iran-Iraq border for photography.
Following my parents’ wedding in Herat, the local security situation became untenable. The town was severely damaged by war and thousands were killed. No longer safe in their home town, my parents decided not to take risks and went to Mashhad, Iran, where they could be safe – with the hope of soon returning to the place their families called home for generations. While we were technically safe in Iran, we did not hold any status there and like the thousands of other Afghan refugees, we were not afforded all of the same rights and privileges given to Iranian citizens. After my father’s death, we travelled back and forth between Afghanistan and Iran when the security situation permitted it.
