Axios uncovers secret Trump-Iran channel

The article details a secret channel established by the Trump administration with the leadership of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard through Iraqi Kurdistan Region President Nechirvan Barzani. The aim was to facilitate direct communication with IRGC commander Ahmad Wahidi during covert Iranian-American negotiations in 2026. It notes that the White House used this channel in an attempt to support negotiations with Iran, especially since the Iranians were expressing their support for the talks, despite disagreements over security issues such as the Strait of Hormuz. The article also clarifies that Barzani’s relationship with Tehran and his preferred role as a mediator were factors that helped facilitate these secret communications, which remained unofficial and were conducted amid tensions between Washington and Tehran, with ongoing disputes over key regional issues.
