The government of Iran stated that it will only negotiate with Barack Obama and not with other United States officials or administrations.
NOT BSTOTAL BS
TOTAL BS — Verdict: False
Verified by Lenz ·
The Short Version
No credible evidence supports the assertion that Iran declared it would negotiate exclusively with Barack Obama. The JCPOA was a multilateral P5+1 process involving Secretary Kerry, Foreign Minister Zarif, and six world powers—not a personal Obama channel. Iran's post-Obama refusals to negotiate cite distrust of specific leaders like Trump, not a declared "Obama-only" policy. No verified Iranian government statement naming Obama as the sole acceptable partner exists in the evidence record.
Caveats
No verified Iranian government statement exists declaring negotiations exclusively with Barack Obama — the claim fabricates a specificity unsupported by evidence.
The JCPOA negotiations were multilateral P5+1 talks involving multiple U.S. officials and six nations, not a bilateral Obama-exclusive channel.
Iran's refusal to negotiate with Trump-era administrations does not logically equate to an 'only Obama' policy — this is a non sequitur inference.
