ANALISIS KETERLIBATAN MEDIA TERHADAP PROSES PENGAMBILAN KEBIJAKAN LUAR NEGERI IRAN KEPADA AMERIKA SERIKAT PADA MASA KEPEMIMPINAN PRESIDEN HASAN ROUHANI 2013-2021

Abstrak

During President Hasan Rouhani's leadership, Iran experienced a change in foreign policy that differed from previous administrations. Under Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's administration, Iran's foreign policy was conservative and anti-Western, which caused tensions between Iran and the United States. This study uses an explanatory method with data collection through a literature review. The theory used is Rational Choice by Kegley & Blanton to analyse media involvement in the process of making Iran's foreign policy toward the United States during the administration of President Hasan Rouhani. The results of the study show that the media played a significant role in the formation of Iran's foreign policy during the era of President Hasan Rouhani. The involvement of the media also encouraged Rouhani to choose a diplomatic approach towards the United States, which was realised through the JCPOA as a strategic step to reduce sanctions and improve Iran's image.
