Baghaei: Decision on Time and Form of Final Agreement Negotiations

Story summary: In the coverage published, Donald Trump once again repeated claims about Iran’s nuclear program. According to Khabar Online and Khabar Fori, he claimed that Iran was only minutes away from building an atomic bomb. Jamearan and Akhbar Fori placed the same claim alongside Trump’s earlier remarks, writing that four months ago he had spoken of a two-week gap, and last year of a two-month gap to build a nuclear weapon. Rooidad24, in addition to نقل this claim about Iran, also referred to another part of Trump’s remarks about Iran’s inflation, writing that he said Iran’s inflation was 350 percent and that it had been 5 percent six months ago.

• Khabar Online wrote that Donald Trump claimed Iran was only minutes away from obtaining an atomic bomb and repeated this claim once again.
• Khabar Online also noted that Iranian officials have consistently emphasized that the country’s nuclear program pursues solely peaceful purposes.
• Jamearan used the phrase “lying Trump” in its headline and then attributed three different time-based claims to him.
• In Jamearan’s account, Trump said today that Iran was only minutes away from building an atomic bomb.
• Jamearan wrote that four months ago Trump had said Iran was only two weeks away from building a nuclear weapon.
• Jamearan also reported that Trump had said last year Iran was only two months away from building an atomic bomb.
• Rooidad24, in addition to the claim about the nuclear weapon, also نقل a part of Trump’s remarks about Iran’s economy.
• According to Rooidad24, Trump said Iran’s inflation is 350 percent.
• Rooidad24 also wrote that Trump said six months ago Iran’s inflation was 5 percent.
• Khabar Fori republished the same “minutes away” claim and provided no further details about the context of Trump’s statement.
• Akhbar Fori also brought together the three attributed remarks and repeated the same time differences of “minutes,” “two weeks,” and “two months.”. Coverage difference: Among these reports, Khabar Online and Khabar Fori focused on directly quoting Trump’s claim that Iran was minutes away from building an atomic bomb, and Khabar Online was the only outlet to mention Iranian officials’ position that the nuclear program is peaceful. Jamearan and Akhbar Fori, by placing three different timelines side by side, emphasized the contradiction or shift in the versions attributed to Trump. Rooidad24, in addition to the nuclear issue, also highlighted another part of his remarks about Iran’s inflation, thus broadening the coverage beyond the nuclear file.
