Iran responded by launching missiles and drones at U.S. military installations in Bahrain and Kuwait, further escalating tensions between the two countries.

Speaking with reporters in Ankara, Trump addressed the latest military strikes and said he no longer intended to negotiate with the Iranian government, accusing Tehran of negotiating in bad faith throughout the diplomatic process.

“For me? I think it’s over. I don’t want to deal with them anymore. They’re scum,” Trump said. He added that Iranian leaders are “liars, they’re cheats. They’re sick people.”

Trump further described the situation as “a waste of time” and added, “As far as I’m concerned, it’s over.”

Trump said U.S. negotiators were free to continue discussions with their Iranian counterparts if they chose, describing the American negotiating team as “good people.”

However, he expressed deep skepticism that Tehran would negotiate in good faith or honor any future agreement.

The ceasefire referenced by Trump was established under the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding, which the United States and Iran signed on June 17 following mediation by Pakistan and other parties.

The agreement created a 60-day negotiating period intended to facilitate a broader settlement to the conflict.
