BAGHDAD/WASHINGTON— Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps urged Americans to vote out US President Donald Trump's allies in Congress as US forces were due to withdraw from their remaining bases in neighbouring Iraq on Wednesday in a departure celebrated by Tehran.

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is appealing to American voters to turn out against President Donald Trump's allies in Congress as US troops are set to leave Iraq. The withdrawal, occurring on Wednesday, was met with approval in Tehran. Meanwhile, Qatar is continuing its efforts to mediate the seven-month conflict between Iran and the United States. President Trump has again forecast a rapid collapse for Iran.
The 26-page letter from the Guards, released on Tuesday, calls upon Americans to utilize their political influence to remove the current leaders from office. It also advises voters to reject US backing for Israel and military actions overseas. Although the letter is unlikely to influence US voters who may not have access to the text through Iranian media, it highlights issues that political analysts assert are troubling Trump and the Republican Party ahead of the November 3 congressional elections.
In this election, Democrats may regain control of one or both legislative branches, which could hinder Trump's policy initiatives.
