On Monday (Nov 3), Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Iran and the US’ coorperation may not be possible if the latter continues to extend its support to Israel. And also mentioned if Washington maintains military bases and interferes in the Middle East it will only add to the decision. In his social media post, he wrote, “The US sometimes says it’s willing to cooperate with Iran. If they stop supporting Zionist regime, remove military bases from the area & stop interfering in the region, these matters could potentially be reviewed. This isn't something foreseeable for now, nor for the near future.”
As quoted by the state media, Khamenei said, “The Americans sometimes say they would like to cooperate with Iran. Cooperation with Iran is not possible as long as the U.S. continues to support the accursed Zionist regime, maintains military bases, and interferes in the region.”
In October, US President Donald Trump said that America is open to make deals with Iran, he metioned that the "hand of friendship and cooperation [with Iran] is open." This comes after the five round of nuclear talks with the country in June before the it was embroiled in cross-border fighting with Israel.
Trump was also involved in the ceasefire betweeen Israel an Iran, he brokered peace between the two nations. This came a day after America struck nuclear facilities in Iran and hours after Iran struck a US base, al-Udeid in Qatar. And after conducting airstrikes in Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan, Trump said, “Our objective was the destruction of Iran’s nuclear enrichment capacity, a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the world’s number one state sponsor of terror.” Sharing visuals of US’ B-2 bombers returning home after striking Iranian nuclear sites in Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan, President Donald Trump called the damage caused to the sites ‘monumental’.
He lauded the soldiers and thanked them for the ‘job well done’.
