Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – January 1, 1994

Mr. Seyyed Javad and Seyyed Baqer, sons of Ayatollah [Syed Mohammad Reza] Golpaygani, came to thank me for my help during the funeral ceremony. His grandson and another person were with them. They gave a report on the status of their tuition and works and the cost of preserving works and services and asked for help to pay the price of the land that Tehran Metro Company has seized from their charity. The officials of the office of women's affairs came on the occasion of the second anniversary of the establishment of this office, I spoke to them.

Doctor Habibi came. Reported the trip to Türkiye and the agreements. He is satisfied with the results of the trip and says that they received him very lovingly and warmly. Mr. Parveen, the manager of the poison factory, came. He complained about the lack of support for poison production. He says that the Ministry of Agriculture pays more attention to the import of poisons. I told him to make a specific offer. He believes that poison should be made more expensive.

At night, the Supreme Council of National Security had a meeting. The next year's Hajj policy was reviewed. We decided to go to Hajj at any cost and try to get privileges for Umrah and Barat. Umrah precedes innocence. We will accept the proposal to merge Hajj and Ba'ath organization and it was agreed that first I will send a letter and a courier to Mr. Fahd.

In order to start the negotiations regarding the Mil Moghan and God Afarin dams, which Armenians have occupied in Azerbaijan, the headquarters of the Azeris, and the Azeris have authorized us to manage their share as well, we decided to tell the Armenians to hand them over to us, and if they don't, we will force them. I stayed in my office at night. Today, after several days without rain, the first winter rain fell in Tehran, but little.
