Amir Hamidi, a national security expert, referring to the results of the U.S. midterm elections, said these results indicate dissatisfaction among part of American society with the state of the economy and the performance of the Trump administration.

He emphasized that the Republicans’ electoral defeat does not mean the end of Trump’s power or the strategic weakening of the United States, and warned that a miscalculation by the Islamic Republic in assessing Washington’s power could have a heavy price for Tehran.
