Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei wrote on X that the United States is using the methods of Nazi Germany's propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels. According to Baghaei: "'Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth' - this is a propaganda law coined by Nazi Joseph Goebbels. Today, the American administration and those who profit from war surrounding it, especially Israel, are systematically using it to serve their malicious disinformation campaign against Iran. What they claim is simply a repetition of big lies. No one should be misled by them."
