Khamenei: Direct US Talks Acceptable, But Iran Won't Yield to Enemy
๐ KHAMENEI โ He's blessing talks while pre-rejecting their outcome. ๐ LOOK CLOSER: Khamenei validating face-to-face talks is permission for Iran's Geneva team โ but the caveat is the real signal. "Not accepting the enemy's position" is hardliner cover, not rejection. It lets Pezeshkian negotiate while Khamenei stays clean if terms disappoint. Washington reads green light; Tehran's base reads no concessions. Both are correct, for now.
