Donald Trump has made a striking assessment of Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, calling him “more rational” than his father amid growing hopes for a nuclear agreement. Speaking to NBC News, Trump praised Mojtaba’s resilience despite reported injuries and suggested he remains actively involved in key decisions. The remarks came as Washington claimed a deal with Tehran is now within reach and as questions swirled over U.S. knowledge of Mojtaba’s whereabouts. Trump’s comments are likely to fuel debate over intelligence gathering, diplomacy and the future of U.S.-Iran relations.
