Trump furious over Iran war vote, harshly criticizes US Congress

 

Washington: US President Donald Trump has strongly criticized the recent vote by the US Senate on war powers against Iran, calling it 'untimely' and 'meaningless'.

According to US media reports, the Senate passed a resolution by a vote of 50 to 48 calling for an end to the ongoing war activities against Iran. Although the resolution is largely symbolic, it has intensified the political debate in Washington.

President Trump responded on his social media platform, saying that Iran is currently under severe pressure and is close to defeat, but the Senate's vote on war powers at such a time is a very inappropriate move.

Trump wrote that 'I had the opportunity to surround Iran and achieve my goals, but the US Senate voted for a timeless and meaningless War Powers Act.'

He added that this move by some senators has made his job more difficult, but he will achieve his goals in any case.

According to Trump, ‘These senators may make my job difficult, but I will get it done one way or another, because I always achieve my goals.’

Political observers say that differences between the US Congress and the White House on the issue of Iran are coming to the fore. On the one hand, President Trump has taken a tough stance against Iran, while on the other hand, some members of Congress are raising questions about the scope and authority of military operations.

According to experts, this dispute could lead to further political tensions over US foreign policy and strategy regarding Iran in the coming days, especially at a time when talks are ongoing between Washington and Tehran on diplomatic relations and possible agreements.
