The worst that could happen in Iran is the choice of a leader “as bad as” Khamenei

US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the worst that could happen in Iran would be the selection of a supreme leader for the republic who would be “as bad as” Ali Khamenei, who was killed on Saturday at the beginning of the US-Israeli attack.

Trump told reporters when he received German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, “I think the worst situation would be for us to do this, and then someone as bad as his predecessor would take over.” “It could happen. We don’t want it to happen,” he added.
