As the US elections come to a close, Iran has reiterated that its policies remain unaffected by the outcomes of foreign elections, emphasizing that the sole factor shaping its stance is its national strength.

Iran's capacity to protect its interests will remain unaffected by the arrival or departure of foreign state leaders, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf stated on Sunday. 

Speaking during an open parliamentary session, just days after Donald Trump was elected as the new US president, Ghalibaf noted that while there are significant differences in how US presidents express hostility towards Iran, the key factor in determining Iran's stance will be its national strength.

"The main point is that what determines the enemy's behavior towards us is the national power and the authoritative conduct and intelligence of the Islamic Republic based on its approach of revolutionary rationality," he stressed. 

Ghalibaf emphasized that Iran's internal strength, driven by the will and determination of its people, compels global powers to take the nation's interests into account when making decisions.

Araghchi: Iran's policy will not be affected by results of US election

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi emphasized on Monday that his country will not place any value on the US elections, as it will have no impact on Tehran's policy.

Araghchi was commenting on whether the results of the US presidential election on Tuesday could affect Iran's positions, especially as talk of an imminent Iranian retaliation to "Israel's" attack on Iran last month is increasing. 

"We will definitely respond to the Zionist entity in the appropriate way, but the nature and quality of this response depends on the decision of the Islamic Republic and according to the circumstances,” he said, explaining that "everyone knows well and has witnessed that the Islamic Republic does not make impulsive decisions based on emotions and feelings, and responds to every aggression with intelligence and wisdom."

"We tell Iran's enemies not to test our will and that they will see the result if they test it,” the Iranian foreign minister said, adding, “We will not compromise on the principles we hold and we will not negotiate on them."
