U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance affirmed on Tuesday the belief that Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei is still alive, though not actively involved in the daily administration of the country's affairs. Speaking to reporters, Vance indicated that there is an
opportunity to reach an agreement with Tehran, emphasizing that this is contingent upon its commitment to good conduct and fulfilling its pledges. He clarified that his country bases negotiations on actions, not words, which will determine the course of engagement
with Iran over the next two months.
