🔻 Iraqchi’s reaction to Trump’s remarks about Israel: the American people are tired and fed up

Hours after the broadcast of Donald Trump’s lengthy interview with CBS, Abbas Araqchi, Iran’s foreign minister, pointed to part of it in which the U.S. president speaks about the unpopularity of war with Iran among his country’s people, and wrote on X—formerly Twitter:

“The U.S. president has clearly realized that the overwhelming majority of Americans dislike Israel. The noteworthy thing is that it seems he is confused about why this is the case. Apparently, Americans are tired and fed up with the fact that Israel deceives U.S. administrations and drags them into endless wars. They no longer tolerate this situation. Our region is the same.”

In the interview, Mr. Trump says that if he weren’t there, “there wouldn’t even be Israel,” and he also cites the unpopularity of war with Iran and Israel among Americans as among the reasons for the Republicans’ defeat in the elections last Tuesday.
