US President Donald Trump has said he believes he should be personally involved in selecting Iran’s next leader following the death of the country’s supreme leader.
In an interview with Axios, Trump said Iran was “wasting its time” if it tried to appoint a successor without US involvement.
He acknowledged that Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of the assassinated Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, is widely seen as the most likely successor but said he would not accept that outcome.
