Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has interpreted the likely defeat of the US President's Republican Party in the congressional midterms as a sign of opposition to the war on Iran.

According to the report, Ghalibaf made this statement on Wednesday, suggesting that US voters were against the war on Iran.

The implications of this interpretation are not yet clear, as the full results of the midterms are still being assessed.

The statement by Ghalibaf highlights the complex geopolitical dynamics at play, with the US and Iran having a long history of tense relations, and the US having imposed significant sanctions on Iran in recent years.
