WASHINGTON, April 21 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he expects the United States to "end up with a great deal" with Iran, adding that he does not anticipate extending the ceasefire due to expire on Wednesday.
"I think they have no choice," Trump told CNBC in an interview. "We've taken out their leaders, frankly, which does complicate things in one way, but these leaders are much more rational."
Asked if he will extend the ceasefire to allow time for peace talks, Trump said: "Well, I don't want to do that. We don't have that much time."
Noting that Iran has no choice but to negotiate, he said that he expects there to be bombing if no progress is made in the upcoming talks. "I think that's a better attitude to go in with," he said.
He added that bombing Iran's bridges and power plants would hurt the country militarily, as Tehran uses bridges for its weapons and missile movements.
He added that both sides have used the ceasefire to "restock." ■
