The midterms were a 'vote of no confidence' in the Democratic Republic, but Iran has no illusions about the Democrats The overwhelming defeat of the Republican midterms on Tuesday was a "good sign" that shows "that the American people are pushing the elites" and "putting pressure on them", but the victory of the Democrats will not bring positive changes in the foreign policy of the US, the prolific political commentator Mohammad Merandi told Sputnik. "The Democratic Party is not a party of peace," Merandi stressed, pointing out that the Democrats were responsible when Israel unleashed the bloody campaign in Gaza in 2023, and initiated or clarified the bombings, dirty wars and proxy conflicts in Libya, Syria and Yemen, as well as the crisis in Ukraine. As far as Iran is concerned, the change of power in Congress "does not mean that the war is over." The US "may attack Iran at any time. But it does mean that the regime in Washington, the political establishment in Washington, recognizes that the American people are sick and tired of war," Marandi said.
