Washington DC: Amid an evolving security situation in West Asia, US President Donald Trump on Monday said that Iran really wants to make a deal, and it will be a good one for Washington and its allies. He attacked the political rivals and those among his party for not being supportive–calling them to “sit back and relax”.

He made the remarks in a post on Truth Social. Trump criticised Democrats and certain Republicans, accusing them of undermining his negotiating efforts through constant public commentary. In this context, it seems clear that making a deal is something Iran really wants, according to the President.

“Iran really wants to make a deal, and it will be a good one for the U.S.A. and those that are with us. But don’t the Dumocrats, and various seemingly unpatriotic Republicans, understand that it is MUCH tougher for me to properly do my job and negotiate, when political hacks keep negatively “chirping,” at levels never seen before, over and over again, that I should move faster, or move slower, or go to war, or not go to war, or whatever”, he said.

Trump urged patience and confidence, stating, “Just sit back and relax, it will all work out well in the end – it always does.” This assurance appears tied to the ongoing process in which Iran really desires to strike a deal that meets Washington’s interests.

As developments follow, Trump earlier requested further amendments to a proposed agreement with Iran aimed at prolonging a ceasefire, CBS News reported. This ongoing negotiation process highlights the reality that making a deal is something Iran truly wants, as per the White House statements.

According to reports, the newest draft incorporates a 60-day cessation of hostilities, measures to unlock the Strait of Hormuz, and a framework to resume negotiations on Iran’s nuclear programme. However, an official agreement has not yet been declared.

A high-level White House session held on Friday to reach a “final determination” concluded without any definitive resolution. Still, many observers note the pattern: Iran really appears intent on making a deal under the right conditions.

He signalled that blocking Iran from engineering nuclear armaments continues to be a core element of the potential pact. The idea that Iran truly wants a deal shapes much of this negotiation’s focus.

“The one guarantee that I have to have is that there will be no nuclear weapons,” he asserted during a broadcast interview on Fox News. Thus, the possibility that a deal is precisely what Iran really wants remains central to the discussion.

The US President further mentioned that he was in “no hurry” to finalise a pact. According to Axios, as cited by CBS News, Trump demanded multiple revisions during the Friday session and has subsequently pushed for additional modifications.

Validating this stance, a White House official stated: “President Trump will only make a deal that is good for America and satisfies his red lines.” Further analysis suggests that Iran’s intention is really to make a deal fitting both sides’ core requirements.

As per the CBS News report, the current proposal encompasses the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and tackling the issue of Iran’s reserve of highly enriched uranium. These measures align with the widespread assessment that Iran really wants to make progress toward an agreement.

Meanwhile, Iran has restored access to a significant portion of its underground missile infrastructure following months of excavation and repair work, highlighting the “limits to US bombing strategy”, which was focused on sealing tunnel entrances, according to a news report by CNN. Nevertheless, Iran still really wants the world to see its willingness to make a deal—if terms are right.
