Iran Supreme Leader Says US Will Be Forced Out of Middle East: State TV
Iran says talks with Washington are off as it seeks an end to sanctions and the U.S. naval blockade on Hormuz, officials said.
- On Monday, Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei claimed the United States would be forced to leave West Asia after suffering "painful blows" from regional fighters, according to state television.
- Tensions in the Strait of Hormuz escalated after the war began in February, with Iran and the United States imposing competing blockades that disrupted the vital maritime corridor.
- Khamenei asserted the Arabian Sea will soon rid itself of the Americans' presence, stating: "Whenever they have braved this risk, they have only brought harm upon themselves."
- President Donald Trump rejected a proposal from President Masoud Pezeshkian to reopen the Strait, which demanded lifting sanctions and ending the naval blockade.
- Although attempts continue to revive bilateral talks, the 56-year-old Supreme Leader has not appeared publicly since February, complicating diplomatic efforts between Tehran and Washington.
