Before noon, we held a meeting with the Expediency Discernment Council’s Consolidation Commission. After listening to their work and views, I made some remarks about their working methods. They have named themselves the Commission on Long-Term Policies and Consolidation, which is incorrect, because all policies discussed by all the commissions are long-term, and this commission has no policies that are exclusive to it.
In the afternoon, Messrs. [Mohammadreza] Rajabi and [Hamidreza] Rezaei from a tourism magazine came to see me. They had brought samples of their work in the hope of receiving encouragement. They do their work artistically. I stayed in my office overnight. Effat has gone to Isfahan to attend a conference on Imam Khomeini.
Among the reports, the election of Tehran’s mayor attracted attention, bringing an end to several weeks of disagreement among council members. They elected Mr. Morteza Alviri, which was a good choice.
The impact of the decision to put [Slobodan] Milošević, [the president of Yugoslavia], on trial as a war criminal has become evident, as he has shown a degree of flexibility. The withdrawal of Antoine Lahad’s forces from the town of Jezzine in southern Lebanon is a significant development. After fourteen years of serving Israel, and with no certainty that Israel would continue to support him, the announced policy of [Ehud] Barak, [Israel’s prime minister], to withdraw Israeli forces from southern Lebanon within one year has led to this outcome. It is a significant victory for Hezbollah in Lebanon.
