In a post published on his X account on Wednesday, Araqchi responded to a report by Israel Hayom claiming that Iran had “deceived” US President Donald Trump, rejecting the allegation and questioning the motives behind the narrative.
“Whenever Miriam Adelson’s mouthpiece pushes a dramatic claim about Iran, it’s worth asking who it serves. Even the US President has acknowledged where her primary loyalties lie,” Araqchi said.
“In its latest piece, Adelson's outlet declared—just an hour before Netanyahu’s White House visit—that Iran had ‘deceived’ Trump. The facts: no executions have taken place, no court process has been concluded, and more than 2,000 prisoners have been pardoned,” he added.
“Before buying the narrative being peddled, consider who benefits from it—and who may actually be doing the deceiving,” Araqchi stated.
The Iranian foreign minister also attached a photo to his post explaining the Israeli outlet’s political affiliations.
