A lot happened in Iran over the past weekend, so I thought I'd share some headlines from a handful of Persian newspapers and websites.
The most prominent event, of course, was the inauguration of new president Hasan Rowhani.
BBC Farsi published an article with this headline:
رويكرد - approach
اصلی - main
دولت - government
زمينه - background
سازی - of
مشاركت - participation
مردم - people
***Translation:
The other significant occurrence, which received less attention in the Western media, was Rowhani's proposal of cabinet members. Tabnak described Rowhani's cabinet proposals with the following headline from this article:
Vocabulary:
کابینه - cabinet
پیشنهادی - proposed
Translation: The proposed cabinet is the 50-50 cabinet
The article describes Rowhani's proposed cabinet as an even split of conservatives/principalists and reformers. The move was seen as a bit disappointing by reformists with high hopes following Rowhani's election.
