U.S. President Donald Trump in an interview published on Saturday said that he is in no hurry to make a deal with Iran to end the war, saying that neither Washington nor Tehran have yet to sign an agreement.

“I’d like to say I’m in a hurry because gasoline prices are going to come tumbling down, but if you’re going to be in a hurry, you’re not going to make a good deal,” Trump told Fox News. “And slowly but surely we’re getting, I think, what we want, and if we don’t get what we want we’re going to end it a different way.”
