Morteza Kazmian, an editorial member of Iran International, referring to the reaction of the Islamic Republic's senior officials to the defeat of the Republicans in the US mid-term elections, said that the government promotes this result as if it had won the election campaign against Trump; although the election result reflected the dissatisfaction of the American citizens with the performance of the Trump administration. He added that the rhetoric strives for the victory of the senior officials of the Islamic Republic, instead of reducing tensions with Washington, strengthens the illusion of power in the government and increases the risk of escalation of tensions and military conflict. According to Kazmian, the continuation of the policy of confrontation with America will increase the economic crisis and the pressure on the lives of the Iranian people.
