Conflicting public narratives from US President Donald Trump and senior Iranian officials are creating a fog of uncertainty around the state of nuclear negotiations. In a new exchange, Trump was asked about Iran saying something different from his claim that "everything has been agreed to." He dismissed the discrepancy, stating, "They have to say something different because they have people they have to cater to. I’m just saying it like it is." This reinforces the pattern of contradictory public posturing as sensitive talks reportedly approach.
