“US President Donald Trump says Iran wants to make a peace deal “very badly””
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
While the evidence confirms that Donald Trump is engaged in negotiations with Iran and believes a deal will be made 'relatively quickly', none of the provided sources explicitly quote or paraphrase him as saying Iran wants a deal 'very badly'. The evidence discusses the existence of talks and Trump's own stance, but not his specific assessment of Iran's desperation for a deal.
