President Donald Trump said in a new interview that Iran’s top leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, should be concerned amid negotiations between Tehran and the United States over the country’s nuclear program.
“I want peace in the Middle East,” Trump told NBC News’ Tom Llamas in a video interview aired on Feb. 4. “If we didn’t take out that nuclear [program], we wouldn’t have peace in the Middle East.”
