From: Haaretz June 11, 2025 Trump says he's 'getting less confident' about reaching nuclear deal with Iran
US President Donald Trump said he is now less confident about a nuclear deal with Iran in an interview with The New York Post.
When asked if Iran would agree to end its nuclear program, Trump said: "I don't know...They seem to be delaying, and I think that's a shame, but I'm less confident now than I would have been a couple of months ago. Something happened to them, but I am much less confident of a deal being made."
However, Trump warned: "if they don't make a deal, they're not going to have a nuclear weapon," adding: "But it would be nicer to do it without warfare, without people dying, it's so much nicer to do it."
