If Iran is wise, they'll cut a deal - Hegseth says Trump 'doesn't bluff and does not back down'

"War Secretary Pete Hegseth said if Iran was 'wise' they could 'cut a deal' as he gave his latest Pentagon briefing on Tuesday. "if Iran is wise, they will cut a deal. President Trump doesn't bluff and he does not back down. You can ask [late Supreme Leader Ali] Khamenei about that," he said. "The new Iranian regime should know that by now. This new regime, because regime change has occurred, should be wiser than the last. President Trump will make a deal. He is willing. And the terms of the deal are known to them. If Iran is not willing, then the United States War Department will continue with even more intensity." The US has repeatedly stated that it is holding talks with the Iranians, which Tehran has consistently denied. The US and Israel launched strikes on Iran on February 28. Tehran responded with strikes on Israel and US assets in the region, with the conflict now into its fifth week. Iran has reported over 1,900 deaths since the start of the war. The US has confirmed at least 13 military service personnel killed with around two dozen fatalities admitted by the Israeli side. "
