- 9 years ago
Iran 's supreme leader predicts that Israel will not exist in 25 years, and rules out any new negotiations with the "Satan," the United States.
In remarks published Wednesday on his personal website and in posts on Twitter , the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei , responds to what he says are claims that Israel will be safe for that period after the July nuclear agreement.
"After nuclear negotiations, the Zionist regime said that they will not be worried about Iran in the next 25 years," Ayatollah Khamenei wrote.
The remarks on Wednesday come a day after President Obama secured enough support in Congress to prevent a vote on the nuclear agreement .
In recent weeks Ayatollah Khamenei, who likes to keep his political options open, has cautiously endorsed the deal but has also reached out to the hard-liners who oppose it.
