Donald Trump, the President of the United States, said on Friday that he is not satisfied with Tehran's latest proposal to end the war and stated that there are two options regarding Iran: an agreement or severe bombing.

Speaking to reporters in the White House's outdoor area, he said, "There are options. Do we want to go in and bomb them heavily and finish them off for good? Or do we want to try to make a deal? Those are the options."

Trump also confirmed that on Thursday he received an updated report on military options from the U.S. Central Command, CENTCOM.

He expressed a preference for not resuming a bombing campaign, explaining, "From a humanitarian standpoint, I would prefer not to do that. But that is the option: Do we want to go in hard and wipe them out completely, or do we want to do something else?"

The U.S. President also expressed doubt about Tehran's ability to accept an agreement, saying, "They want to reach a deal, but I am not satisfied with it." He reiterated that he is currently "not satisfied with what they have proposed."

His reference was to a proposal that Iranian media reported was delivered to Pakistan as a mediator for negotiations on Thursday evening. The U.S. President did not specify what in the new Iranian proposal is unacceptable to him and further indicated that Tehran officials may never reach a negotiated solution to end the war.

Trump pointed to "severe disagreements" among Iranian leaders, stating, "They have made progress, but I am not sure they will ever reach a conclusion." He added, "The leadership (of Iran) is very disorganized. They have two to three groups, maybe even four, and the leadership is very scattered. However, they all want to reach an agreement, but everything is in disarray."

The U.S. President also noted that negotiations with Tehran are ongoing via "phone." He said, "We are currently doing everything in terms of negotiations, over the phone. They have made progress, but I am not sure if they will ever get there."
