WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump on Sunday urged Iran and Israel to make a peace deal, expressing confidence that such an agreement is possible.

In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump cited his role in defusing tensions between India and Pakistan through trade diplomacy, as well as mediating between Serbia and Kosovo, and helping de-escalate the dispute between Egypt and Ethiopia over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam.

“Iran and Israel should make a deal, and will make a deal,” Trump wrote, stressing that trade and U.S. leadership can bring “reason, cohesion, and sanity” to the negotiations.

The president said he has been engaged in “many calls and meetings” and predicted peace would come “soon” between the two archrivals.

“I do a lot, and never get credit for anything, but that’s OK, the PEOPLE understand,” he added.

Trump also criticized President Biden’s previous decisions, claiming they have damaged long-term peace prospects. “I will fix it, again!” he wrote.

The post comes amid rising tensions between Israel and Iran. Trump ended his statement with a bold slogan: “MAKE THE MIDDLE EAST GREAT AGAIN!” — Agencies
