Asked about the ceasefire between the US and Iran, Donald Trump says: "I think it's over."

He tells reporters at the Nato summit: "I don't want to deal with them anymore, they're scum."

"As far as I'm concerned, it's over," he adds. "It's just a waste of time dealing with them, they're liars."

Trump says negotiators from both sides "can talk" but are "wasting their time". 

"Frankly, I don't want to waste my time with them," he adds.

Trump also says he will "let our wonderful negotiators keep talking if they want, but I don't see it".

Trump's comments on the US-Iran ceasefire

Trump replied: "It's a very interesting question. To me, I think it's over.

"I don't want to deal with them anymore, they're scum. You know what scum is? They're scum. They're sick people. They're led by sick people. And they're vicious, violent people.

"And if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it. As far as I'm concerned it's over.

"I'll speak to our negotiators, they want to negotiate, they're good people. Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, but they have to come back to me. As far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of time dealing with them. They're liars.

"We make a deal. If I make a deal with him [pointing at Nato Secretary-General Mark Rutte], we have a deal. He goes out, he talks. We [US and Iran] make a deal, everyone's agreed, no nuclear weapon.

"We make a deal. They [Iran] go outside, talk to the press, they say 'we never even talked about it'. There's something wrong with them. They're cuckoo. As far as I'm concerned, it's over."

Trump is then asked if talks will resume.

"I don't care, they can talk. But I think they're wasting their time. They're a bunch of lying guys."
