Iran officials welcome U.S. election results
Top officials in Iran are welcoming the results of U.S. midterm elections, casting them as a rejection of President Trump’s war.
Iran’s Parliament speaker and chief negotiator said on Wednesday that American voters sent a clear message against the war. But Iran’s supreme leader warned that anyone expecting a change in U.S. policy toward Iran is “gravely mistaken.”
The U.S. has carried out limited strikes on Iranian targets in recent weeks and fears of renewed all-out war following the election have kept the region on edge.
