Trump says he wants a deal with Iran not destruction and death

"We are doing a lot of work with Iran now. We want to reach a deal with Iran, but sometimes their negotiators are too tough," US President Donald Trump said on Monday.

"We want a deal, we don't want destruction and death. I hope it will work out, but maybe it won't work out," he added.

He also confirmed that he discussed Iran in his phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier today.
