They arrived at three with an official reception. Instead of an interview, he read a text regarding the possibilities for developing relations. I also said a few sentences.

At Sehunim, they entered with an official welcome. Instead of an interview, he read a text about the possibilities of developing relationships. I also said a few sentences. They went to Imam's shrine and I came home.
I went to Saadabad at half past seven. At his request, we had private negotiations for half an hour. He asked for the acceptance of the Philippines as an observer member in the Organization of the Islamic Conference, due to the presence of a large number of Muslims in the Philippines, and also requested that they use our experience in fighting drug and weapon smuggling and also benefit from our experience and capital in the oil and gas industries.
He insisted that Muslims in the Philippines have no problem. He had brought the governor of the Muslim states with him and told him at the airport pavilion to explain to me the situation of Muslims and the government's policy towards them. He said that another small party, apart from the Moro Liberation Front, has an armed struggle and has coordinated with Libya, Pakistan and Türkiye.
We had many conversations at the dinner table. He gave an explanation of the situation of Marcos's family and Marcos's widow and said that they still haven't been able to get Marcos' property in Swiss banks and they are facing trial. In America, in one case, Mrs. [Maria Imelda] Marcos became the ruler in the court and now [Mrs. Imelda Romualdez], the wife of Marcos, is fighting for the presidency and parliament in the Philippines. He does not have correct knowledge of numbers and economic indicators. He is a military person.
I came home According to the reports, the conflict of Hizb Vahdat in the west of Kabul with the [Burhanuddin] Rabbani government and at the same time with the Taliban has caused problems. Dr. Rouhani, [Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council], asked for my opinion by phone. Regarding this problem, I said that if, with an understanding with Rabbani, Jinnah Akbari is in the west of Kabul, instead of [Abdul Ali] Mazari, it is better than the presence of the Taliban.
