Trump advisers urge restraint on Iran ahead of US midterm elections

Top advisers to US President Donald Trump are urging him to avoid escalating military tensions with Iran prior to the upcoming November midterm elections, according to reports. Key administration officials reportedly fear that entering a broader Middle Eastern conflict could alienate American voters and jeopardize the Republican Party's control of Congress.

A loss of the Republican majority in the House or Senate could significantly alter Washington's foreign policy trajectory and potentially complicate future military aid packages for Ukraine. With less than three months remaining before the pivotal votes, White House strategists are focused on maintaining domestic political standing while navigating complex international security challenges.
