Iran worried Trump’s negotiations could be trap to assassinate one of the regime’s last surviving political leaders: report

Leaders in Tehran worry that any face-to-face negotiations with the US and Israel to end the war would be a ruse to draw out Iran’s parliamentary speaker, Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf, the Wall Street Journal reported.
