A personal letter from President Donald Trump to the family of Erfan Faraji, a teenager killed in Iran, has been revealed.
The letter was written in response to a heartfelt appeal from Majid Moghadasi, an Iranian American who resides in Woodland Hills, after his 18-year-old nephew was shot dead during anti-government demonstrations in January.
Estimates of fatalities during the regime's January suppression of the unrest range from 7,000 to 36,000.
Trump's letter expressed condolences and a commitment to support the Iranian people, stating that his administration would 'always stand with the Iranian people in their quest for freedom and democracy.'
The President also committed to ongoing efforts to hold Iran's leadership accountable, mentioning that his administration was 'working diligently to ensure that the Ayatollah and his murderous regime are brought to justice.'
