US has no indications of Iranian regime collapsing: White House

A White House official played down the potential for regime change in Iran on Friday, saying that US President Joe Biden was expressing solidarity with Iranian protesters after he said “we’re going to free Iran.”

“The President was expressing our solidarity with the protesters as he’s been doing, quite frankly, from the very outset,” National Security Council Spokesman John Kirby told reporters.During a campaign rally in California on Thursday, Biden also said the Iranian people would free themselves “pretty soon.”

Kirby said it was up to the people of Iran to determine their future.
