The Iranian Guardian Council commented on the words of the Iranian Leader about those granted eligibility to run in the presidential elections by saying that "the council's final opinion will be announced soon," adding that Sayyed Khamenei's recommendations are "the final word and we must adhere to it."

A spokesman for the Guardian Council, Abbas-Ali Kadkhodaei, stated that the council "has admitted that it is not infallible and will announce its opinion soon."

A press source in Iran said that "the Guardian Council based the decision to exclude Larijani on inaccurate reports."

Sayyed Ali Khamenei announced earlier today that some individuals that did not receive eligibility to run for President "were subject to injustice, and I ask the authorities responsible bodies to compensate for that."

Sayyed Khamenei stated that the allegations against the people that were not granted eligibility to run for office are untrue.

Haqiqat-poor stated that the supporters of Larijani are waiting for "an emergency meeting by the Guardian Council today so that Imam Khamenei's order is implemented," while saying that Larijani's electoral center "is ready to go back to work."
