Iran on Thursday called Donald Trump’s victory in the US presidential election an opportunity for the United States to reassess past “wrong policies”.<\/p>\n

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 pressure” strategy on Iran during his first term.<\/p>\n

“We have very bitter experiences with the policies and approaches of different US governments in the past,” foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei was quoted as saying by state news agency IRNA.<\/p>\n

Trump’s win, he added, was a chance “to review previous wrong policies”.<\/p>\n

Iran and the United States have been adversaries since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, which overthrew the Western-backed shah, but tensions peaked during Trump’s first term from 2017 to 2021.<\/p>\n

Before Trump was declared the winner on Wednesday, Iran had dismissed the US election as irrelevant.<\/p>\n

“The general policies of the United States and the Islamic Republic of Iran are fixed,” said government spokesperson Fatemeh Mohajerani.<\/p>\n

“It doesn’t matter who becomes president. Plans have already been set so that there is no change in people’s livelihood,” she added.<\/p>\n

During his first term, Trump unilaterally withdrew the United States from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal and imposed harsh sanctions on the Islamic republic.<\/p>\n

In 2020, under Trump’s presidency, the United States killed revered Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps general Qasem Soleimani in an air strike on Baghdad airport.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
