Iran 'has mistaken perception' of US midterm result, expert says

A leading commentator on Iran says the country sees the results of the US midterm elections as giving them a golden opportunity for a sweet deal. Paymon Azmoudeh from Forward Global was speaking amid conflicting statements from the key players about whether there will be further US military action in Iran. President Donald Trump says that renewed strikes on Iran are "highly unlikely" if talks progress. However, Iran's foreign minister says the midterms have brought a ⁠pause to mediators' work.
