The editorial says that both Hillary\u2019s and Trump\u2019s positions toward a nuclear agreement are compatible with those of their parties: Hillary defends the deal, unlike Trump who is talking about shredding it. Nevertheless, Hillary believes in pursuing tougher policies on Iran than those of Obama\u2019s; she has also criticized the release of Iran\u2019s frozen assets. Perhaps, Iranian hardliners do not want Hillary to take over the presidency, and be the first woman who becomes the U.S. president, which will raise questions as to why women in Iran do not have ministerial positions so far. Trump\u2019s confrontational policies will increase the Russian influence in the Middle East. Obviously, both views are wrong: it is no longer strange in the world for women to take over political leadership, and the Russian-Iranian cooperation is no longer a secret. The editorial refers to the significant point that Trump\u2019s taking office in the United States will lead to armament race in the region. Despite the fact that Iranian officials 30 years ago thought they could get concessions from the Republican Reagan as a result of Iran-Contra, but history has shown that later a crazy clueless Republican president like George W. Bush could make the Iranian society face real challenges with the West\u2014as a matter of fact, Bush&#8217;s actions led to growth of Islamic radicalism. If Iran could get benefits from the United States through diplomatic mechanisms and force the Americans to recognize Iran&#8217;s right to have a nuclear activity, this time such concessions indeed cannot be obtained from a psychopathic chauvinist like Trump. The other thing is, at least both Obama and Hillary have read several books, and are graduates from the best American academic centers, but this trickster and liar \u2013Trump\u2014[from the viewpoint of Iranian newspaper] has not even opened a book throughout his life. The nuclear deal would not get any better by Trump\u2019s office, but Hillary would probably implement the agreement terms to some extent, thus establishing the most significant achievement of Rouhani&#8217;s government. Accordingly, quick implementation of the nuclear deal is in Iran&#8217;s interest, and with the continuation of Obama&#8217;s policy there will be a greater chance for Iran to move better on foreign policy, and escape ban policies and sanctions imposed on the country. In conclusion, the Iranian expansion era will come to an end with the departure of Obama, and now Iran is facing two possibilities: either Hillary who will stick to the nuclear deal, will no more release Iranian assets, and will have more assertive policies towards Iran, or Trump who has not concealed his intentions and desire to tear up the nuclear deal.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Jahan Sanaat Newspaper: Exchange rate unification impact on industrial investments<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s editorial in Jahan Sanaat Newspaper discusses the impact of exchange rate unification on industrial investments. The editorial says that Iran fought the experience of unifying the exchange rate throughout the last decade of 20th century and the first decade of 21st century. It is scheduled for Iran to unify the exchange rate it again, but unlike before, it would be carried out step by step. The second phase will be taking place in March 2017, when, by the central bank&#8217;s decision, currency exchange will be liberalized through banks and exchange rate in the market. In next phase, some special exchange tariffs will be canceled. And the final stage will include the total abolition of government price for foreign exchange and official recognition of exchange rate based on free market mechanism. The editorial says that the most important point in the liberalization of the exchange rate policy is continuity, and what guarantees such continuity is the money gained from oil exports and related products. In such circumstances, economic shocks cannot be expected; therefore, it is not expected for multiple exchange rates to return. Although the exchange rate unification policy is a short-term mechanism to resolve some problems of the industries, it certainly is a long-term recovery solution for industries in Iran as well. The most anticipated financial resources in the Sixth Development Plan are bank facilities and identified by 24.8% of the total financial funding. With the liberalization of the exchange rate, Iranian banks will be able to have access to foreign exchange reserve. However, the editorialist has forgotten the increase in price, which Iran will suffer as a result of the liberalization of the exchange rate \u2013 for example, in the domain of imported drugs, as well as in cost of living in general, especially with the abolition of cash support given to the people. Thus, it is expected for reformists to pay the price of these policies and face the public anger, especially after the next presidential elections in May 2017. Perhaps, this is one of the reasons why Conservatives have not introduced any candidates to compete in the upcoming elections so far.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Kayhan Newspaper: Mr. Rouhani! Showing Apology<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kayhan newspaper comments in an editorial today on Rouhani&#8217;s speech at the opening ceremony of the book exhibit. The editorial&#8211; written by Hossein Shariatmadari, adviser of Khamenei on press and media affairs&#8211; says that Rouhani\u2019s interpretation of events is far from the truth. Rouhani has made false statements&#8211; for example, Rouhani said that 100 sanctions that were imposed on Iran had been lifted, but they [the critics] just look at the empty half of the glass. The editorial highlighted this, wishing that if only Rouhani had provided one example from those 100 lifted sanctions. In spite of Rouhani\u2019s speech, all members of negotiating team of experts, including Salehi, Zarif and Araghchi have stated that sanctions have been lifted just on paper. The editorial also criticized Rouhani for not keeping his promises to create jobs for young people, although his presidency is about to end. According to the editorial, he has spent past four years only talking about the nuclear deal. The editorial also criticized Rouhani&#8217;s opinion as to why Mosul fell into hands of ISIL, suggesting that it happened due to breaking the link between Mosul and Baghdad. Moreover, the wrong policies of Baghdad had made people of Mosul not defending their city against ISIL. Shariatmadari believes that Rouhani ignored many facts in his analysis, and puts the responsibility on Baghdad.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-436\" src=\"http:\/\/arabiangcis.org\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/06\/Prominent-News-1.png\" alt=\"AGCIS\" width=\"188\" height=\"43\"><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\">\u2666<\/span> Al-nujaba: Qasem Suleimani in Iraq<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2022\" src=\"http:\/\/arabiangcis.org\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/11\/maxresdefault-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1120\" height=\"641\"><br \/>\nSecretary General of the Iraqi Islamic Resistance Movement, Akram Al-Ka\u2019bi announced that Iran\u2019s Quds Division Commander, Qasem Suleimani is in Iraq along with other military advisors and appreciated Iran\u2019s support that has shed blood to liberate Iraq from the ISIS.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #993300;\">Mehr News Agency<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\">\u2666&nbsp;<\/span>Fundamentalist MP: America Proclaims Hostility toward Iran<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2023\" src=\"http:\/\/arabiangcis.org\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/11\/1-52544.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1430\" height=\"818\"><br \/>\nFormer Fundamentalist MP, Ismail Kawthari said that the United States President\u2019s extension of the emergency state against Iran reflects the American hostility against this country;
