US President Donald Trump on Friday expressed dissatisfaction with Iran’s latest proposal aimed at ending the ongoing conflict, while also casting doubt on whether a final agreement can be reached.
Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump said, “They want to make a deal, but I’m not satisfied with it, so we’ll see what happens.”
He did not elaborate on the specific aspects of the proposal he found unacceptable but indicated uncertainty over Tehran’s willingness to ultimately agree to a settlement.
“They’ve made strides, but I’m not sure if they ever get there,” Trump added, while speaking on the White House’s South Lawn.
The US President also pointed to internal divisions within Iran’s leadership, suggesting that disunity could be affecting the negotiation process.
“The leadership is very disjointed. It’s got two to three groups, maybe four, and it’s a very disjointed leadership. And with that being said, they all want to make a deal, but they’re all messed up,” the US President said.
