US President Donald Trump said Wednesday he “would like to meet” Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, as Washington and Tehran accuse each other of violating an increasingly fragile ceasefire.

Mojtaba Khamenei, 56, is thought to have been wounded in US-Israeli strikes that killed his father, Ali Khamenei, and has not been seen in public since he was named his successor.

“I would like to meet him, and we probably will meet at some point, depending on how it all works out,” the US president told the New York Post’s “Pod Force One” podcast.
