Analysis by media and communication experts
Media and communication experts believe that the aim of American and Arab media in publishing unsubstantiated news about the negotiations is to prevent a rise in oil prices to benefit Donald Trump ahead of the presidential elections. This group of analysts argues that such news can impact global markets and act in favor of specific political trends.
Nevertheless, the source close to the Iranian negotiating team emphasized that such claims are not true at all and that no new round of negotiations is currently underway. This highlights the necessity of caution in accepting news published by foreign media, especially when such news is directly related to the political and economic issues of the country.
In this situation, the statements from the source close to the negotiating team can help clarify the current status and assure the public that real and documented negotiations are being pursued seriously. Given the existing sensitivities, it is expected that this issue will be further examined and analyzed in the near future.
