The United States and Israel jointly launched a large-scale military attack on Iran on February 28 this year, successfully beheading Iran's former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and a number of senior military and political officials. However, the war has not ended nearly eight months since the outbreak of the war. U.S. President Trump admitted that the attack on Iran's leadership may have gone too far, and it is now difficult to find Iranian officials who can negotiate.

According to comprehensive foreign media reports, U.S. President Trump said at a rally in Youngstown, Ohio on the 12th, "We may have hit the Iranian leadership too hard because we don't know who we are dealing with now." He said that "no one wants to be the president of Iran," and potential presidential candidates are unwilling to take over this position. He said bluntly, "To tell you the truth, it's hard for us to figure out who to deal with now. I think we have gone too far."

However, reports pointed out that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has been the president of Iran since July 2024.

Trump continued to emphasize during the rally that Iran had lost its entire air force and all 159 ships. He described the ships as now "lying beautifully on the seabed."
