Mar 9, 2026, 15:01 GMT+0

US President Donald Trump said he was “not happy” with Mojtaba Khamenei replacing his father as Iran’s new supreme leader, according to an interview published by the New York Post.

“Not going to tell you,” Trump said when asked about his plans for the younger Khamenei. “Not going to tell you. I’m not happy with him,” he told the newspaper.

Asked about reports the United States could deploy ground troops to Iran, Trump told the newspaper: “We haven’t made any decision on that. We’re nowhere near it.”
