Trump says he must be involved in selecting Iran's next leader
Trump compares U.S. role in selecting Iran's next supreme leader to its involvement in Venezuela, aiming to influence Iran's future amid ongoing U.S.-Israel military strikes.
- On March 5, Reuters reported that U.S. President Donald Trump said he wants the U.S. involved in choosing Iran's next leader and encouraged Iranian Kurdish opposition groups to press attacks.
- Amid nationwide strikes by U.S. and Israeli forces, a power vacuum followed Khamenei's death, prompting Iran succession talks as the U.S.-Israel campaign escalates.
- Drawing a parallel, Trump cited Venezuela's Delcy Rodríguez as a model after rejecting Mojtaba Khamenei as an unacceptable successor.
- The immediate human and economic toll includes casualties and rising oil prices, with attacks on Strait of Hormuz shipping routes disrupting global oil markets.
- Looking ahead, the lack of an official successor in Iran raises questions as the Assembly of Experts continues deliberations, while analysts warn US and Israeli aims may intensify.
