US President Donald Trump claimed Iran’s leadership suggested he could become the country’s next Supreme Leader, but he refused. Speaking at a Republican event, he said, “They’d like to make you the next supreme leader. No, thank you.” Trump also said talks to end the war are ongoing, though Iran denied any negotiations. Reports say the US sent a 15-point ceasefire plan through mediators, including Pakistan. The proposal includes ending Iran’s nuclear programme and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Iran rejected the plan and mocked Trump’s claims. Tehran instead shared its own conditions for ending the conflict. (PC: India Today)
