Trump says Iran wants to end the war – but terms of a potential deal ‘aren’t good enough’
New York Post ^ | March 14, 2026 | Anna Young

President Trump on Saturday said Iran is begging for an end to the war, but he’s not ready to strike a deal with Tehran until they get serious about the proposed terms.

“Iran wants to make a deal, and I don’t want to make it because the terms aren’t good enough yet,” Trump told NBC News, adding that any agreement would require Iran to completely abandon any nuclear ambitions.

The president said the conditions of an agreement with Iran have to be “very solid” before he’ll agree to halt the US-Israel military campaign — and even questioned whether their new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is still alive in the interview.

With the utmost respect I very much doubt Iran wants to end the conflict. They just want to continue it unopposed.

Their beginning position is pretty weak. Pathetic even .

Of all of the countries in this world, Iran is a PUNK.

Whe is Trump talking to about Iran? We’ve killed the first 3 levels of leadership there, and the Russians are actively assisting Iran against us.

I suppose China could be a conduit, but what would Xi want in return?

When you are not in a position of power or control, your negotiating position is pretty weak. You’re pretty much have to accept what the other side is offering or you will be eliminated one way or the other.

It’s not true. One of many such utterances.

“...the conditions of an agreement with Iran have to be ‘very solid’...”

The Iran government hasn’t told the truth since, and before, they gained control of the country around the 7th century. Control won’t be reached until there is a firm and unyielding overseeing of the leaders and that they are freely working with other countries in a managed atmosphere they cannot vary from. Sound impossible? Their only other alternative is loud explosions and flying bodies which they will gladly accept to get their virgins and satisfy their god. Making deals have to be two way.

Israel will not stop until the mullahs are gone. Iran must become a
democratic republic. Theocracies don't cut it in the 21st century.

Oddly the exact same thing Trump wants, "the free flow of oil for all nations out of the Persian Gulf."

If true...

I suspect they do. They probably want us to surrender now, same as the Democrats want.

Any election will be open to manipulation by bad actors. Russia, China, whomever.

To win a fight, the victor must beat on their opponent to the point where the opponent is begging for mercy and surrenders completely before the fight ends.
Iran may never reach that point and still be alive.
