Trump says US will give Iran talks 'one shot,' is in no hurry

May 20, 2026, 14:43 GMT+1Updated: 19:42 GMT+1

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday said Washington would give Iran “one shot” at diplomacy but warned of further attacks if Tehran does not agree to a deal.

“I’m in for three months and much of it’s been ceasefire,” Trump told reporters.

“We’re in the final stages of Iran. We’ll see what happens. Either have a deal or we’re going to do some things that are a little bit nasty, but hopefully that won’t happen,” he added.

“We’re going to give this one shot. I’m in no hurry,” Trump said. “Ideally I’d like to see few people killed, as opposed to a lot. We can do it either way.”
