According to the Iranian news agency IRNA, Iranian Central Bank Governor Hemmati, referring to a series of US sanctions and the greatest economic pressure, stated that everything the US has done so far, aside from creating some income and trade restrictions, is merely an attempt to exacerbate expectations and have a temporary impact on market sentiment. He stated that economic pressure is not a policy, but a miscalculation, and it is increasing the calculation costs for Americans. Responding to Trump's promise that the Republicans would win the congressional elections, Hemmati said that the promise to pay every American $5,000 if the Republicans win the congressional elections is part of this miscalculation cost.
