0445 GMT: We begin with a comment by the Supreme Leader on leading opposition figures Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi, held for almost 15 months under strict house arrest along with Mousavi's wife Zahra Rahnavard.
According to Melli-Mazhabi, the website of the Nationalist-Religious Coalition, conservative cleric Ayatollah Ostadi recently met with Ayatollah Khamenei and asked him to release the three.
The Supreme Leader responded, "I do not oppose their release, but can you guarantee that after they are released they will remain silent and will not speak against the interests of the nezaam?"
