Garibadi: Iran does not adjust its foreign policy based on the American elections.
Kazem Gharibabadi, Iran's Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Law, said that Tehran will not wait for the results of the US midterm elections to determine its foreign policy.
On Tuesday, November 3, on the sidelines of the unveiling ceremony of the annual reports "Violation of human rights in the US and the UK", he emphasized that "whenever Iran sees a necessary decision in accordance with its interests and national security, it will take it without being influenced by external factors".
Jaribabadi, also referring to the US military's ground attack on Kashem Island last night, said that from Tehran's point of view, the state of war is still ongoing and any retaliatory response by Iran will be "in the direction of legitimate defense." Several American media outlets, including the Wall Street Journal, Fox News and AP reported, citing American officials, that on the morning of Tuesday, November 3, after Revolutionary Guards forces fired at an American fighter jet, the US military attacked targets on Kesham Island.
