Iran after midterms: Do not expect US policy change

Iran's leader Mojtaba Khamenei reacted to the US election results, clarifying that Tehran does not expect an easing of American pressure.

Against the backdrop of the Democratic victory in the US midterm elections, Iranian leader Mojtaba Khamenei clarified that Tehran does not intend to expect a shift in Washington's approach. Khamenei stated that those developing expectations for a softening in American policy are mistaken regarding the US's fundamental position toward his country. This was reported by the Jerusalem Post, The National, and NDTV.

Meanwhile, analysts point out that Democratic control of both houses of Congress could lead to tighter scrutiny of Israel's military operations across various fronts, potentially casting a shadow over long-standing US support. Further details have not yet been released.
