Mohsen Rezaei, an Iranian security official, claimed Iran had dealt U.S. President Donald Trump both a military and a political defeat, citing the outcome of the U.S. midterm elections.
Walter Bloomberg reported on November 4 that Rezaei wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that “the Iranian people handed Trump a strategic defeat on the battlefield and in the Strait of Hormuz, and a political defeat in Washington.”
Rezaei made the remarks as reports emerged that Republicans suffered heavy seat losses in the U.S. midterm elections. Still, the characterization of the result as an Iranian achievement was Rezaei’s own claim.
Meanwhile, U.S. Vice President JD Vance reportedly proposed talks with Rezaei to discuss ways to end the war with Iran. No specific schedule for the meeting has been confirmed.
