Radio and Press of the Soviet Union, still reflected they left wing ideas in Iran. It was written the leading article of Time Magazine, June 14 1963: "Tehran was a battlefield for 3 days last week. People screamed, the weapone fired and the smoke of burning garbage and tear gas were blended. And this was a fight against development".

Moscow Radio, on its Persian program analyzed the uprising: "Reactionaries who are dissatisfied of the reforms, especially land reform, and do not seek freedom and the rise of social rights for women, held demonstrations in Tehran, Qom and Mashhad. The leaders of the disorder were religous leaders. People set fire to the Bazaar, broke into some shops, broke down cars and buses and also attacked some state organizations".
Isvestia, offical newspaper of the Soviet Union government, wrote in its Khordad 17 issue: "Tehran, Mashhad and Qom were restless by the order of Muslim reactionary clerics. They misused the days of mourning, and some prejudiced retarted young men broke into some shops and crashed some cars"
Russian Magazine, New Era, wrote: "Khomeini and his associates have aroused the believers against the government. The rights of women was their excuse and some people blinded by the prejudice came to the streets under their impression".
