Court documents have revealed that the Trump administration maintained contact with Iranian officials during the war to discuss the removal of Iranians from the United States.
The filings show that officials from the U.S. government reached out to their Iranian counterparts to coordinate the submission of travel documents for those slated for removal.
In addition to paperwork, the documents indicate that the two sides explored “possible avenues for removal,” suggesting a broader effort to manage the process of deporting Iranian nationals.
These communications were part of a larger legal case that sought to clarify the administration’s approach to handling Iranians during the conflict.
While the documents do not specify the exact war in question, they confirm that the U.S. and Iran were in dialogue over the logistics of removing Iranian citizens from the country.
