U.S. President Donald Trump told Fox News ⁠that it's possible ⁠he would be willing to talk with Iran but that it depends ⁠on the terms, the cable news network said on Tuesday.

Asked in an interview on Monday evening about the possibility of negotiations with Tehran, Trump told Fox he heard Tehran ⁠wanted to ⁠talk badly, according to the news network.

The Republican president also reiterated his unhappiness with Iran's new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, telling Fox: "I don't believe he ⁠can live in peace."

Trump also echoed his comments at a press conference earlier on Monday, telling Fox the results of the ⁠U.S. ‌military operation ‌in Iran were "way beyond ⁠expectation." Trump ‌added that he was surprised that Iran was ⁠striking Gulf countries ⁠with missiles and drones, according ⁠to the network.
