Iran appeals to US voters as American troops leave Iraq
Meanwhile, Qatar holds out hope it can mediate peace deal between US and Iran.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran has appealed to American voters to remove President Donald Trump's allies from Congress as US troops are set to withdraw from Iraq. The 26-page letter, published on Tuesday, urges Americans to reject US support for Israel and military intervention abroad. The letter highlights issues that analysts say are working against Trump and the Republican Party ahead of the November 3 congressional elections.
The US war in Iran has contributed to higher global fuel prices and spread unrest in the Middle East. Despite rounds of talks and ceasefires, Iran and the US have not reached an agreement to reopen the strategic Strait of Hormuz. Qatar has stepped in as a mediator, but it remains unclear if negotiations are making progress. Trump has predicted a swift surrender for Iran, while Iran views the withdrawal as a victory for its "axis of resistance."
