IQN (NewsDesk): Iran’s chief negotiator in talks with the United States, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, said Wednesday that the Democratic rout of Republicans in the US midterms reflected American rejection of Trump’s conflict with Iran.
Writing on social media, Ghalibaf tied the result to both anger over the cost of living and opposition to the war, framing the vote as a message Tehran welcomed. He added a pointed warning, suggesting there would be consequences if Washington acted against the public will it had just expressed at the ballot box.
Trump has separately acknowledged that the Iran conflict played a role in his party’s midterm losses, even as he pointed to fuel prices and broader economic concerns as additional factors. The remarks come as tensions between Washington and Tehran remain elevated, with both sides continuing to trade warnings over the prospect of renewed military action.
