Khamenei's analysis of the conditions and the way Seyyed Mohammad Khatami faced the situation and conditions of the university and the sensitivity of Seyyed Mostafa Tajzadeh.

Khamenei: The account of street riots should be separated from the account of primary student movements.

Mr. [Mohammed Reza] Mokhbar [Dezfouli, head of the Advisory Commission of the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution] came. He said something about the situation of the universities the deviations of the left spectrum and the insolence of the counter-revolution. And for the weak work of the Minister of Science and Spectrum, as well as the ineffectiveness of the Supreme Council of Cultural Revolution and the need to renew the vitality of creativity, he asked for help to give hope to the future of the youth and to eliminate the shortcomings. And also, asked for help with employment and the activation of the supervision commission of the assembly [diagnosis of expediency].

In the evening [Mr. Musa Mohammad Mola], the South African ambassador, came to say goodbye. I invited Mr. [Nelson] Mandela to visit Iran. He talked about the effects of my African trip; With the necessity of continuity of work.

Timsar [Hedayt] Lotfian, the commander of Naja [= police force], and Timsar [Mohsen] Ansari, his deputy, came. They gave a complete report of the riots; From the moment the conflict started in the university, until now, they thanked Naja for my support and said that a little of their despair and resentment has been compensated due to the propaganda and extensive attacks on Naja in the university events. They are not satisfied with handing over the work to the Tharullah Sepah base and they claim that the accidents in the university started with mischief incitement and violation of the students and they did some of the damage themselves.

They are complaining about [Mr. Abdulwahid Musavilari], Minister of State, [Mr. Mustafa Moin], Minister of Science, [Mr. Mohammad Kazem Kohi], Director of the University, and Mr. [Mustafa] Tajzadeh, [Political Deputy of the Ministry of State]. They were worried about Mr. Khatami's awarding of badges to Tajzadeh and Kohi, whom they blame.

I was a guest of the leader. Most of the discussions were about recent events and riots. Khamenei, their opinion is that the account of street riots should be separated from the account of primary student movements, but the violation of students who were effective in the riots should be dealt with.

They said that they cooperate with Mr. Khatami from a position of weakness and they have no problem with him, but they defend the likes of Tajzadeh who were given a reminder and said that they did not agree to the meeting of the Tahkim [Unity] office because they want to introduce themselves as the representatives of the students.

They explained about reforming the composition of the commission dealing with the university issue [in the Supreme National Security Council] so that it is not one-sided.

The Turkish military has invaded [a checkpoint in Piranshahr on] the border of Iran by air and killed and wounded 25 nomads and soldiers. It is an important issue.
