U.S. President Donald Trump on June 1 said that he believes the Iranian regime “really wants to make a deal” to end hostilities after fresh U.S. strikes on Iranian military targets overnight.

In a post on Truth Social, the president wrote that the deal between Washington and Tehran “will be a good one” for the United States, while he chided critics for “chirping” about the negotiations. The chatter about a possible deal makes it “MUCH tougher for me to properly do my job and negotiate,” he added.
