'Should make a deal, and will make a deal' - President Trump weighs in on Israel-Iran conflict

Using his social media platform Truth Social, Donald Trump has suggested that Iran and Israel will end their violent conflict by 'making a deal' through his mediation.
US President Donald Trump has predicted that the warring nations "will make a deal" on his social media platform on Sunday, as "many calls and meetings [are] now taking place".
He also claimed successful mediation efforts in the past, most recently between India and Pakistan, after hostilities between the nuclear-armed rivals escalated last month.
Trump wrote:
"Iran and Israel should make a deal, and will make a deal, just like I got India and Pakistan to make, in that case by using TRADE with the United States to bring reason, cohesion, and sanity into the talks with two excellent leaders who were able to quickly make a decision and STOP! Also, during my first term, Serbia and Kosovo were going at it hot and heavy, as they have for many decades, and this long time conflict was ready to break out into WAR. I stopped it (Biden has hurt the longer term prospects with some very stupid decisions, but I will fix it, again!). Another case is Egypt and Ethiopia, and their fight over a massive dam that is having an effect on the magnificent Nile River. There is peace, at least for now, because of my intervention, and it will stay that way! Likewise, we will have PEACE, soon, between Israel and Iran! Many calls and meetings now taking place. I do a lot, and never get credit for anything, but that’s OK, the PEOPLE understand. MAKE THE MIDDLE EAST GREAT AGAIN!"
