The research question is: What are the dimensions and components of the presented image of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the years 2005 - 2009 in the international arena? Due to its exploratory nature, this research lacks a hypothesis. In other words, here, the researcher seeks to obtain information that can help him understand the subject of the research well. The research method is qualitative using content analysis. The data collection method is based on the available documents about the 9th administration president's interviews with foreign media. Based on this, the sample data, including Mr. Ahmadinejad's interviews with foreign media from 2005 to 2009, were analyzed using content analysis method.
