Donald Trump says he will only accept the "unconditional surrender" of Iran. The US and Israelis launched the attack last Saturday and killed the Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khoumaini. The president appeared to rule out negotiations with Iran to end the conflict in the Middle East, saying that there will be no deal but “unconditional surrender” from Tehran. He said: "There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! Trump spoke dismissively of Khamenei’s son, Mojtaba Khamenei, being a front-runner to replace his father, calling him “a lightweight.” “We want someone that will bring harmony and peace to Iran,” Trump said.
