US President Donald Trump on Wednesday urged Iran to "get smart soon" over a nuclear deal, declaring: "No more Mr. nice guy!"
"Iran can't get their act together. They don't know how to sign a nonnuclear deal. They better get smart soon," Trump said on his Truth Social platform.
Notably, the post included an image of the US president wearing a black suit and sunglasses while holding a firearm, with explosions in an Iranian landscape behind him.
The US and Israel launched a joint offensive against Iran on Feb. 28, prompting Tehran to respond with strikes on what it described as US interests across the region, many of them in Gulf countries.
A ceasefire was announced on April 8 through Pakistani mediation, followed by talks hosted in Islamabad on April 11-12, but the negotiations ended without an agreement.
Trump later said the truce had been extended at Pakistan's request pending a proposal from Tehran.
He signaled Monday that he was unlikely to accept Iran's latest proposal to end the war after Tehran proposed a plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz while leaving questions about its nuclear program for later negotiations.
