Iran Mocks Trump Over Midterm Defeat, Says His War Triggered 'Political Earthquake' In US

Iran ·

Speaking at a press briefing in Tehran, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei said the war had caused a political and social earthquake in America, citing the Republican losses in the midterm elections. He pointed to the U.S. leadership's acknowledgment of public discontent over the conflict.

Tehran and Washington have been adversaries since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, and Iranian officials often comment on U.S. domestic politics.
