Is Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei trolling Trump? - BBC News
Three days ago, ties between the US and Iran took a significant turn for the worse.
Donald Trump pulled the US out of a multi-country deal that suspended sanctions on Iran while limiting its nuclear activities. After saying the deal was "defective at its core", he placed more sanctions on Iran.
Iran responded with frustration, but it now appears to be engaging in a more off-the-cuff manner.
On Friday, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was pictured in a post on his Instagram feed at the Tehran Book Fair.
Nothing unusual there, but in one image he was seen reading a Persian-language edition of Michael Wolff's book Fire and Fury, which claims that life in the White House is chaotic.
