“The death of Ali Khamenei is a defining moment in Iran’s history,” Kallas wrote.

“What comes next is uncertain. But there is now an open path to a different Iran, one that its people may have greater freedom to shape.

“I am in contact with partners, including those in the region that bear the brunt of Iran’s military actions, to find practical steps for de-escalation.”
