US President Donald Trump has expressed willingness to meet with Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as diplomatic efforts to end the ongoing conflict between Washington and Tehran show little progress.

"I'm pretty confident in saying that if the Ayatollah said tomorrow he wanted to meet with President Trump, the president would meet him," Rubio told Bloomberg.

"Nation states need to interact with one another - I serve under a president that's willing to meet with anybody," the Secretary of State said. The conflict between the US and Iran began more […]
