President Donald Trump insisted that he be "involved" in picking the next leader of Iran after the United States assassinated Ali Khamenei in Operation Epic Fury.
In an interview with Axios on Thursday, Trump revealed that he would not accept Mojtaba Khamenei, son of the former supreme leader.
"They are wasting their time," the U.S. president said. "Khamenei's son is a lightweight."
"I have to be involved in the appointment, like with Delcy [Rodriguez] in Venezuela," he added.
Trump also said he would not accept a leader who would force the U.S. to strike Iran again "in five years."
"Khamenei's son is unacceptable to me. We want someone that will bring harmony and peace to Iran," he insisted.
When pressed about a new Iranian leader earlier this week, Trump was unable to come up with a name.
"Most of the people we had in mind are dead," he said.
