Almost all papers today covered the remarks made by Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif about Tehran’s reaction to Washington’s possible withdrawal from the Iran Nuclear Deal. Zarif, who is in New York on a six-day trip, stressed that Iran would not accept any changes to the JCPOA: either all or nothing.

Also a top story was the discovery of a mummified body in Shahr-e Rey, southern Tehran, which is said to be the body of Reza Shah Pahlavi, the former Shah of Iran.

The comments by renowned US filmmaker Oliver Stone, who is in Tehran to attend the International Fajr Film Festival, and the remarks made by Government Spokesman Mohammad-Baqer Nobakht and other officials about efforts underway to end the house arrest of Iranian opposition leaders also received great coverage.
