TEHRAN:  , Iran on Thursday ( Nov 7 ) called Donald Trump’s victory in the US presidential election an opportunity for the United States to reassess past “wrong policies”.
Trump, who is set to return to the White House in January after defeating US Vice President Kamala Harris in Tuesday’s election, had pursued a “maximum force” plan on Iran during his first word.
According to state news agency IRNA, foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei was quoted as saying,” We have very bitter experiences with the policies and approaches of different US governments in the past.
Trump’s gain, he added, was a chance” to evaluate prior bad policies”.
Iran and the United States have been enemies since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, which overthrew the Western-backed king, but conflicts peaked during Trump’s first word from 2017 to 2021.
Before Trump was declared the winner on Wednesday, Iran had dismissed the US vote as useless.
According to government spokesman Fatemeh Mohajerani,” the basic laws of the United States and the Islamic Republic of Iran are fixed.”
” It does n’t matter who becomes president. Programs have already been set so that there is no change in people’s livelihood”, she added.
Trump unilaterally withdrew the United States from the Iran nuclear deal in 2015 and put severe restrictions on the Muslim state during his first word.
In 2020, under Trump’s presidency, the United States killed revered Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps public Qasem Soleimani in an atmosphere attack on Baghdad airport.
