An AI-generated video mocking Donald Trump has gone viral in Iran, highlighting tensions over delayed US-Iran talks. Shared by an Iranian consulate, the clip shows a caricature of Trump waiting for Iranian negotiators who never arrive, growing increasingly frustrated. It culminates with a message telling him to “shut up” before he extends the ceasefire again. The satire reflects Tehran’s scepticism about Washington’s intentions, especially after Trump prolonged the ceasefire citing Pakistan’s request. Meanwhile, Iran has not confirmed participation in fresh negotiations, accusing the US of inconsistency. The episode underscores how digital propaganda and humour are increasingly shaping narratives around high-stakes geopolitical standoffs.
