Tasnim on Tuesday announced the launch of a new section titled “#Trump_Check” aimed at examining statements made by US President Donald Trump in light of his repeated and contradictory claims.

Trump frequently delivers several speeches and interviews in a single day, many of which contain strange claims.

In the first part of the segment, several of Trump’s latest remarks have been reviewed:

Claim 1: Trump says Iran wants to reach an agreement.

Check: Iran has consistently emphasized support for genuine diplomacy, but what Washington usually seeks in negotiations is the imposition of excessive demands on other countries.

Iran has stressed three main points:

First, Tehran is currently only prepared to discuss ending the war, and no nuclear negotiations are on the agenda.

Second, any talks regarding the end of the war must take place within a framework determined and accepted by Iran as the side holding the upper hand in the conflict.

Third, given recent hostile actions by the United States, no negotiations are currently underway.

Therefore, while Iran supports diplomacy, Trump’s portrayal of the situation is “unrealistic and false,” and it is the United States —not Iran— that needs an agreement.

Claim 2: Trump says Iran wants an agreement but is playing games for now.

Check: Iran is only seeking a good agreement that serves the interests of the Iranian people and has already outlined its conditions in a recent 14-point message delivered through a mediator.

Many analysts believe the United States has lost both politically and militarily in the conflict but is unwilling to openly accept defeat. Washington has therefore turned to “wandering ideas,” such as attempting to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by force, a move that would only deepen America’s failure.

Claim 3: Trump says, “Our blockade is as strong as steel.”

Check: The question is why Washington would seek military adventurism to reopen the Strait of Hormuz if its naval blockade was truly effective and fully in America’s favor.

The US rush to reopen the strategic waterway itself demonstrates the ineffectiveness of the maritime pressure campaign.

Claim 4: Trump says, “Iran’s economy is collapsing.”

Check: The US administrations have repeatedly claimed since the 1979 Islamic Revolution that the Islamic Republic was on the verge of collapse or that Iran’s economy was failing. So Trump’s latest remarks are merely a repetition of longstanding American wishes. Trump had claimed 10 days ago that Iran’s oil reserves would explode within three days, while more than a week has passed since that deadline without any incident. Many of Trump’s other statements resemble similar unfulfilled predictions.

Claim 5: Trump says 111 missiles were fired from Iran at American warships during the war, but all were intercepted.

Check: If Trump is truly confident in the defensive capabilities of US naval vessels, he should explain why no American warship dared approach within less than 1,000 kilometers of Iranian naval forces during the conflict.

Claim 6: Trump says the US destroyed Iran’s entire military.

Check: Such a claim is extremely absurd. If Iran’s entire military has truly been destroyed, then who is currently targeting American warships, US interests, and vessels attempting to pass through the Strait of Hormuz without authorization.

If the Iranian military is completely eliminated, then why does the Strait of Hormuz remain closed?
