would unfreeze Iranian assets and the other sweeteners are under consideration for Iran.
“The officials” as the Sayers, refers to the two senior U.S. administration officials
. Then, by “„the‟ P5+1 powers of „the‟ United States, Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany
”, the journalist explains the members of P5+1, which uses hyponymy in lexical cohesion. To explain the members of the P5+1 country
is power of the United States, Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany. Similarly, in the verbiage, it shows that the P5+1 power
would unfreeze the Iran’s asset. It may be the point that French disagree. The sentence also presents that the
journalist is in pros side with U.S. and cons with Iran, by positioning the U.S. officials’ statement who say about the deal, especially about the prizes which is
refused by Iran. By the analysis, the sentence is shaped to bring down Iran in the negotiation.
In other words, the journalist represents Iran in the negative perspective. He shows that Iran would get some points about the extraction of western sanction
from the negotiation which is advantage for Iran, but Iran refuses the negotiation.
