Trump: Iran’s new leadership seeks talks after Khamenei strike
TL;DR
US President Donald Trump said in an Atlantic interview that Iran’s new leadership wants to open talks with Washington after US-Israeli strikes that Iran and Israel say killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei; he noted some Iranian officials involved in recent contacts were reportedly killed and did not specify when a face-to-face discussion might occur. The remarks come as Washington and Jerusalem press on with a campaign against Iran, which has already inflicted casualties on US forces—three service members killed and several wounded—raising fears of broader escalation.
