U.S Psychological Operation measures in Negotiating with Countries

The purpose of this study is to identify the US government and its media outreach techniques used to persuade North Korean officials to negotiate and accept the issue of nuclear disarmament. In this regard, the researchers’ efforts were to use the Qualitative Content Analysis method to highlight and analyze the news of the affiliated and pro-US government news media such as Reuters, BBC, and the BBC during the period from May 1396 to June 22, 1397, when the leaders of the two countries met, and provide an appropriate answer to the question of what psychological operations measures have the US authorities used to negotiate with North Korea?
The results suggest that US government officials, with the goal of gaining international credibility for Trump government and showing a good deal from the view point of the new White House officials, have taken advantage of various psychological operations techniques so that through changing the position of the North Korean authorities to negotiate and accept Nuclear disarmament, will restore the lost political image of the United States by withdrawing from international treaties, such as the Paris deal and Barjam (comprehensive plan of action). In this regard, they have used techniques like enlightening, encouragement, inspiring confidence, putting in strait, exaggeration, intimidation, continuity, generalizing, mockery and de-humanization of the opponent.
