Trump: "I Will Choose the Next Leader of Iran"

Donald Trump stated that he wants to personally participate in the selection of the next leader of Iran, as he did in Venezuela. He dismissed Mojtaba Khamenei as a potential successor, calling him “unacceptable,” but acknowledged that he is the most likely candidate. The Iranian regime has delayed the announcement of the new supreme leader. Trump expressed his view that he wants a leader who will bring peace and harmony to Iran, and rejected the prospect of a leader who would continue the policies of Khamenei. His comments heighten uncertainty surrounding the US military campaign.
