Welcome to The Trump-Iran Negotiations series! We’re breaking down these high-stakes talks through a persuasion lens — cutting through the noise to reveal what’s actually happening behind the statements, framing, and media narratives

WHERE WE ARE NOW
Part XV laid out The Shift. Trump traded urgency for indifference. You, and Iran, were accustomed to deadlines. Trump was using them to create urgency, and it allowed him to create a negotiation chip out of thin air. But now we’re at the point of negotiations where there are no deadlines, nor flights to Islamabad. Trump pulled the clock off the wall and put a phone on Iran’s desk — then told the world via the press that Iran would have to call. But no rush!

We’re now in Part XVI of our negotiation series, and it starts with Iran calling. Sort of.
