US President Donald Trump "tweets a lot", Iran's deputy foreign minister said on Saturday after Washington threatened fresh strikes if no deal was reached with Tehran.
"The American side tweets a lot, talks a lot. Sometimes confusing, sometimes, you know, contradictory," Saeed Khatibzadeh told journalists on the sidelines of an annual Turkish diplomatic forum in the southern province of Antalya.
