Trump attacks New York Times over Iran war coverage

Donald Trump has attacked The New York Times, labeling its assessment of his actions regarding Iran as "treacherous" and the newspaper itself as "corrupt." Trump made these remarks on his social media platform, Truth Social, stating that his current lawsuit against The New York Times would be expanded to include this aspect.

The New York Times' analysis reportedly argued that Trump framed the opening of the Strait of Hormuz as a success, even though the waterway was closed due to the war he initiated. The article further suggested that despite personnel changes in Iran, the Islamic Republic's governing system has not collapsed and may have even strengthened due to the conflict.

Furthermore, the analysis pointed out that the future of Iran's nuclear program, which Trump cited as the reason for starting the war, remains uncertain. Iran has reportedly secured a prospect of sanctions relief and economic aid through a memorandum. The newspaper's conclusion was that the U.S. is now in a worse position than before the war began.

The war between the U.S. and Iran commenced in late February, with a ceasefire taking effect in early April, though it has been violated multiple times. Last week, the U.S. and Iran signed a memorandum aiming to reach a comprehensive agreement on ending the war within 60 days.
