Typically, when heads of state or high-ranking foreign guests arrive in Tehran, they usually meet with the spiritual leader and head of Iran, Ali Khamenei. However, so far, the official authorities and the press of both countries have not reported on a meeting between Emomali Rahmon and Ali Khamenei.

More than an hour after the president’s decree relieving three judges of their duties was published, the president’s press service reported that Emomali Rahmon met with the Vice President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Mohammad Mokhbir.

On May 30, Emomali Rahmon continues his trip to Iran. It is unclear how he signed the decree relieving the judges of their duties today in Dushanbe – whether during the trip or retroactively.

Emomali Rahmon arrived in Tehran on May 29 at the official invitation of his Iranian counterpart, Sayyid Ibrahim Raisi, for a two-day visit as part of a high-level government delegation. At Tehran International Airport, Rahmon was greeted by the Minister of Energy of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Aliakbar Mehrobieh, and other officials.
