[U.S. Media Claims Iran Studies *The Art of the Deal* to Decipher Trump's Negotiation Strategy] According to a report by Golden Finance on June 24, citing *The Wall Street Journal*, Iranian diplomats have stated that due to Trump's unconventional style, they have been studying *The Art of the Deal*, co-authored by Trump and journalist Tony Schwartz in 1987. The book advises negotiators to make extreme and unpredictable demands to create anxiety and force opponents to make concessions. Iranian negotiators reportedly told intermediaries that they consulted a team of psychologists to help understand Trump's mindset and attempt to predict his public reactions to Iran's proposals. Political analysts and mediators have noted that Trump's high-profile and hardline statements have so far failed to extract additional concessions from Iran. Mohammad Amersi, an Iran expert at the Wilson Center, a Washington think tank, commented: 'Trump is employing strategies from *The Art of the Deal*, using extreme threats to test the other side's resolve. But the Iranians are well aware of his tactics.' However, a person familiar with Iran's diplomatic negotiations in Switzerland stated that there are no psychologists on the Iranian negotiation team and that Iran prefers to avoid speculating on Trump's motives or decisions from a psychological perspective.
