Khamenei's Alleged Red Lines Emerge as Iran-US Talks Resurface
TL;DR
A hardline MP read allegedly top-secret letters attributed to Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei on state TV, claiming he opposed ongoing Iran-US negotiations and set conditions (compensation, Iran’s exclusive control of the Strait of Hormuz, and keeping the nuclear issue off the table). The broadcaster cut the program, and the disclosure drew legal threats and conservative backlash, highlighting divisions in Tehran over the recently signed Iran-US memorandum and the next round of talks in Switzerland.
