At eleven in the morning, we had a meeting at the President's office to examine the causes of rising prices and ways to combat them. [This meeting] continued until two in the afternoon. It was decided that we should give priority to essential goods; we discussed wheat and tea; it was decided that we should flood the market with them in abundance and saturation and have a four-month supply of wheat in the silos.
For this purpose, this year we must import about eight hundred thousand tons of wheat and thirty thousand tons of tea; the discussion will continue. Good progress has been made. I went to the Majlis. The [Majlis] presiding board was in session. Then I went to the meeting of the [Islamic Republic] Party's central council; it was over. They had selected the candidates for the Majlis presiding board.
Then Mr. Jannati came. We discussed the Guardian Council and the Supreme Judicial Council. They informed me that the Assembly of Experts would open on the third of Shawwal and that its venue would be the [Islamic Consultative] Assembly. He had a criticism concerning a Friday prayer sermon of mine, in which I had spoken about the Imam's household and those around the Imam, which I explained. I came home for iftar. I was tired; Effat also became somewhat ill-tempered because of her high expectations of the Revolution for society, and I too reacted sharply - more than necessary- and our mood was spoiled.
