The dangerous situation of the war with Iran.

The US midterm elections on November 3rd are not just a contest to determine the composition of Congress; These elections can affect the timing of a new round of military conflict with Iran. Danny Citrinovich, a researcher on Iran issues at the Israeli Institute for National Security Studies, believes that the risk of conflict escalation may increase not before the elections, but between the publication of the results and the start of the new Congress; A time when Washington's political calculations are changing, but Donald Trump's administration still has the authority to take military action. According to Citrinovich, the main problem is not only the possibility of a new war, but the instability of the situation where no stable agreement has been formed between Tehran and Washington, and neither have the parties managed to bring the conflict to a decisive end. In such a situation, the American elections became an effective factor in the calculations of both parties. The importance of Citrinovich's analysis lies in linking the American political calendar with the strategic deadlock of the war. Elections may change the decision-making time, but they will not resolve the fundamental differences between Tehran and Washington. Details of the report on the World Economy website.
