With a Trump presidency on the horizon, Iran must now consider how it escalates war with Israel. Israel responded to Tehran’s strikes on Tel Aviv last month with attacks on Iranian military sites, and now Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has vowed harsh countermeasures.
“Trump’s victory will give Iran pause as it considers striking back at Israel in their tit for tat,” says Sean McFate, adjunct professor in Maxwell's Washington programs.
“During Trump’s previous administration, he scuttled the Iran Nuclear Deal (JCPOA), strongly embraced Israel and sought to normalize Jewish-Arab relations in the region. I doubt he will support the Palestinians, and he will likely end the Biden-Harris dual policy of support to both sides in the Gaza conflict. None of this is good for Iran,” McFate says.
