The third millennium is the age of media. Twitter, which is a social and global media, has become a favorite of politicians with 280 characters. In 2018, Trump announced the beginning of a new chapter in relations with Iran by announcing his withdrawal from the joint comprehensive plane of action (JCPOA). During this period, a new chapter was formed in the exchange of tweets between the political leaders of Iran and the United States, which could be the basis for determining the strategy of Iranian diplomacy.Therefore, the main question of the research is what strategy did the Iranian diplomacy approach represent via Twitter in the year of the US withdrawal from JCPOA? In this regard, in-depth interviews were conducted with 17 experts in the three main areas of communication, international relations and political science, and based on the content analysis method, concepts and categories were extracted using maxqoda software. A review of the interviews confirms that Iranian diplomacy on Twitter is able to be a guide line for the future of Iranian diplomacy and as a contributing element in political exchanges and to advance the country's diplomacy one step further.
