Iran's new hardline supreme leader and oil price surge | Reuters World News

The late Ayatollah’s hardline son, Mojtaba Khamanei, is Iran’s new supreme leader. It’s a choice which could lead to an escalation with Washington. The Iran war drives oil prices above $100 a barrel. Gas prices soar too, after Qatar stops LNG exports. Syria’s Kurds warn their Iranian counterparts about the potential for American betrayal. Republican voters say they stand by Trump’s war for now, but they’ve got a red line: American boots on the ground. And campaigners urge Australia to give the Iranian women’s soccer team refuge.
