The Spin

Anti-Iran narrative

Tehran's sophisticated cyber tactics against the US election process blend direct hacking of government networks and disinformation campaigns. Iran's influence extends beyond cyberspace, embedding itself in media, religious centers, and political lobbies. This multifaceted approach manipulates public opinion, shapes policy decisions, and dangerously undermines electoral integrity.

Pro-Iran narrative

These allegations smearing Iran are nothing but disinformation, as Tehran has no involvement in the US presidential election and has never engaged — or planned to take part — in cyberattacks. The Islamic Republic only has defensive cyber capabilities to foil operations against its infrastructure.
