In the Farsi program of American Radio [Voice], they interviewed Ahmad, the son of Mr. Mohsen Rezaei, who said that he became a refugee in America, because of his decision to fight and expose against the government of Iran, and how he went, and insulted the Imam and the leadership, and talked about the looting of property, and likening the authority of the Faqih.
In the Farsi program of American Radio [Voice], they put an interview with Ahmad, the son of Mr. Mohsen Rezaei, who said that he became a refugee in America, because of his decision to fight and expose against the government of Iran, and how he went, and insulted the Imam and the leadership, and talked about the looting of property, and compared the authority of the cleric to the monarchy. Earlier, Mr. Rezaei said that he went to America. Mr. [Qorban Ali] Dori Najafabadi, [Minister of Information], consulted on the phone to neutralize the negative foreign propaganda of this issue. I said, it is good for his family to say something, and then the news of the interview of his younger brother, Ali, came on telexes, who claimed that America kidnapped him and forced him to give an interview under pressure, which is unlikely to happen.
Messrs. [Syed Mohammad] Mousavi Khoyiniha and [Mohammed Reza] Tausli came. They expressed concern about the current situation, especially regarding the decrease in influence and acceptability of the leadership, and said, on behalf of their group of friends [in the militant clerics' assembly], they have been assigned to consult with me to remedy this situation. The experts proposed to negotiate directly with the leadership or the presiding committee [Majlis] to convey their words to the leadership or to be conveyed by me.
I also said that I share their concern; In addition to worrying about the economic situation and the work process and the risk of recession and unemployment. They are more concerned about the position of the leadership in favor of the faction opposite to them - the right line - and examples of that are the mayor's trial and the impeachment of Mr. Nouri and the propaganda of the Friday imams and the radio and television against the issues of the second Khordad this year and giving leadership to people like [Hossein] Allah Karam, Mansour Arzi, [Zabihullah] Haj Bakshi and [Mohammed Reza] Naqdi, and they want to raise such issues with the leadership.
I said, the issues of the country should be raised in a comprehensive way and these should be included. Anyway, I read the negotiation with the leadership as positive. I gave a note to Mr. Khoyiniha, [director in charge of Salam newspaper], about Salam newspaper, which he wrote contrary to saying that I don't care about many votes in the elections. I said, I believe that we should not divide the country's forces for excitement and competition. In the evening, Eft and the children returned from Ramsar. In the reports, the news of the death of [Boris] Yeltsin, [President of Russia] is of interest; Of course it was denied.
