Donald Trump has reacted to the selection of Mojtaba Khamenei, saying he is not pleased with the development. Trump made the statement during an interview with Fox News.
The new leader reportedly succeeded his late father Ali Khamenei, following his death in recent attacks. Iranian state media confirmed the leadership change, marking a major political shift in the country.
Trump claimed that recent military actions by the United States had weakened Iran’s military strength. He said the balance of power in the Middle East had changed significantly after the strikes.
Despite growing tensions, the US president said global shipping should not be afraid to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for international oil transportation.
