Donald Trump claimed to have sent a letter to Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, advocating nuclear negotiations while simultaneously threatening military action. Trump expressed a preference for a deal over military intervention, emphasising the urgency of the situation. The letter reportedly suggests that Iran should negotiate to avoid military consequences, as Trump aims to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. However, the Iranian mission to the UN stated they had not received such a letter. This overture echoes a prior attempt in 2019, which Khamenei publicly dismissed. Trump's proposal arrives after he previously withdrew the U.S. from the 2015 nuclear agreement, and further, he stated he would be willing to obliterate Iran if they assassinated anyone.
