    Donald Trump, in an interview with CBS News, stated that despite the recent attacks by the U.S. and Israel on the Islamic Republic, there is still a possibility of reaching a diplomatic solution, and this path has now become "much easier than a day ago."

    Trump referred to these attacks, which he claimed led to the death of Ali Khamenei, saying: "Because they are under severe pressure," and described the operation as "a great day for America and a great day for the world."

    The U.S. President noted the Islamic Republic's reaction, stating that a retaliatory action was expected, but its intensity was "less than we anticipated." He added: "We thought it would be double that."

    According to reports, around forty officials of the Islamic Republic were killed during these attacks. So far, there have been no reports of American casualties or injuries.

    Trump emphasized that he is ready to cooperate with the U.S. Congress and refrained from using the term "war" to describe this conflict. He stated that his main focus remains on eliminating threats against the United States.

    Khamenei, one of the most evil individuals in history, is dead. This is not only justice for the people of Iran but also for all great Americans and for people from many countries around the world who have been killed or maimed by Khamenei and his gang of bloodthirsty thugs. He could not escape our highly advanced intelligence and tracking systems, and in close cooperation with Israel, he and the other leaders who were killed alongside him could do nothing. This is the greatest single opportunity for the people of Iran to take back their country. We hear that many members of the IRGC, the army, and their other security and police forces no longer want to fight and are seeking immunity from us. As I said last night: "They can have immunity now; later, only death awaits them!"

    I hope the IRGC and police peacefully integrate with Iranian patriots and work together as one unit to restore the country to its deserved greatness. This process must begin soon, as not only is Khamenei dead, but the country has been severely devastated in just one day and has even approached the brink of destruction. However, heavy and precise bombardment will continue relentlessly throughout the week—or as long as necessary—to achieve our goal of peace throughout the Middle East and, indeed, the world!

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.
