Trump says he does not want to extend ceasefire with Iran

Source: Reuters

WASHINGTON, April 21 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump told CNBC in an interview ‌on Tuesday that he did not ‌want to extend a ceasefire with Iran, adding the ​U.S. was in a strong negotiating position and would end up with what he called a great deal.

"I don't want to ‌do that. ⁠We don't have that much time," Trump said when asked about ⁠the possibility of extending the ceasefire.

Washington has expressed confidence that talks with Iran will ​go ahead ​in Pakistan, and ​a senior Iranian ‌official said Tehran was considering joining.

With the prospect of last-ditch further peace talks still up in the air, Trump said the U.S. would resume its attacks on Iran ‌if a deal is ​not struck with Tehran ​soon.

Preemptive (though sometimes post facto) rejection to soothe the ego of the rejected.

He's a damn man-child. He must pretend not to want whatever someone refuses to give him. He cannot stand appearing not to be dominating any situation.
