Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei made the remarks at his weekly press conference on Monday morning, where he answered questions put forward by the journalists.
Touching upon the results of the recent congressional elections in the United States, Baqaei said that what brought about the Republicans' defeat was not America's war but Iran's epic resistance. He emphasized that, were it not for the resilience of the Iranian people, the United States could have sold its war to its own public as a victory.
The senior Iranian diplomat added that the true victors are the people of Iran, and that the US government must grasp the message of the American people.
He noted that Iran makes no distinction between the two American parties, noting that Tehran has been wounded by both over the past years.
He called on the American ruling establishment to understand the extent of the problems the Israeli regime can create for them and to what extent its consequences can be far-reaching.
Blocking Goods Entry to Gaza Part of Israel's Genocide
Elsewhere in his remarks, Baqaei referred to the ongoing Israeli genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, saying that blocking the entry of humanitarian goods is part of the Israeli regime's campaign to commit genocide against the Palestinians. "Statistics show that of the 600 trucks that were supposed to enter Gaza under the Sharm el-Sheikh agreement, only 120 to 122 trucks are entering, which is not enough for the population in Gaza," he noted.
Iran Opposes Change in Region's Geopolitics
Referring to the latest developments in the region, Baqaei said that the Islamic Republic of Iran opposes any plan that leads to a change in the region's geopolitics.
Regarding the approval of a project in Armenia's parliament concerning the "Trump Route," he stated, "Our position has been repeated many times; we welcome the opening of transportation routes and have emphasized that these plans must not lead to a change in the region's geopolitics."
"Experience shows that the U.S. presence and emergence in the region have always been accompanied by insecurity. We have conveyed our concerns to Armenia, and we have been assured that this project will not lead to a change in the borders," he added.
