Iran Front Page- IFP has taken a look at the front pages of Iranian newspapers on Tuesday, September 26, and picked headlines from 14 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.
As expected, the Iraqi Kurdistans independence referendum held on Monday was one of the most important news covered by Iranian newspapers today. While the issue was covered by many newspapers on the front page, some papers preferred to release features on the consequences of Iraqs disintegration for the country and the Middle East, and some tried to offer solutions to be adopted by Iran on future of Kurdistan region. Some newspapers also highlighted the international opposition to the plebiscite in their headlines, and referred to the phone conversations between presidents of Iran, Turkey, and Russia on the need for maintaining Iraqs territorial integrity and borders.
Reactions to Trumps anti-Iran remarks and measures, and the reaction by the Iranian government to the US president also remained a top story today. The comments made by Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli Larijani and articles in praise of President Hassan Rouhanis UNGA speech were also covered in the front page of some newspapers today.
Domestic economy and its problems also received great coverage. Some papers offered suggestions for making economic reforms and others highlighted the problems of Irans private sector and workers in their Tuesday front pages.
