“Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian was taken to a secret Tehran location and allowed only minutes in a dark, tinted-window car with a man presented as Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei,” Iran International’s sources claimed. “Pezeshkian could not see the man beside him and later asked whether the voice he had heard had really belonged to the supreme leader.” He described his conversation with the alleged “supreme leader” as “direct” and “frank,” and praised Khamenei’s “humble and deeply cordial manner.” The report of the meeting followed comments by President Donald Trump mocking the Iranian regime for being leaderless and disorganized. The Iranian president also praised the “supreme leader” as “exceptional in terms of ethics, logic, and humility.”
