War of narratives: Iran claims victory after the ceasefire

After the ceasefire announcement, Tehran presents the agreement as a victory, claiming that Washington accepted its demands. The 10-point plan adopted now serves as the basis for negotiations.

Official communication immediately presents the Islamic Republic of Iran and its allies as winners after the announcement of the ceasefire, a strategy relayed by the state media to bolster the regime's legitimacy.

Supporters of the axis of resistance are exploiting the temporary agreement to claim they prevented a complete defeat against their international adversaries.

The Supreme National Security Council of Iran claims that the United States accepted all its demands, without specifying Iranian concessions beyond the two-week reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

Donald Trump accepted the 10-point plan as a basis for continuing negotiations, but both parties are mainly trying to craft a narrative that allows them to declare themselves victorious.

What position do you feel closer to?

Triumphant Iranian leaders

The ceasefire and the adoption of the 10-point plan cement the balance of power in favor of Iran and confirm Washington's strategic setback.

Cautious US officials

The ceasefire agreement and the 10-point plan are an adjustable compromise, not an Iranian victory nor a strategic American retreat.
