US ‘not satisfied’ with Iran deal yet: Trump
The President of the United States (US), Donald Trump, has said that Iran had believed it could delay talks and pressure the United States by prolonging negotiations.
He said the situation has now changed and Iran understands that it has no option except a deal.
Speaking to reporters before a cabinet meeting at the White House, Trump said Iran’s leadership thought it could tire the US through long talks. He said this strategy is no longer working.
Trump said he is not fully satisfied with the current progress in talks with Iran. However, he said he believes the situation will improve soon.
He said Iran wants to reach a deal, but the expected results have not been achieved yet. He added that the US is still not satisfied, but it will be.
