TEHRAN – The U.S. would better think of a palpable turnabout in its attitude toward Iran and the larger Middle East during Donald Trump’s presidency, the Supreme Leader’s top military advisor has said.

“We hope that the American president-elect would demonstrate a tangible shift on Iran and the region so that the roots of insecurity would be removed from the region,” Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi told reporters on Monday, Tasnim reported.
