Iran 'demands' eye-watering sum to end war after Trump warns regime to 'get their act together'
Donald Trump has hit out at Iran after it published a draft deal of 'demands' they want fulfilling in order to end the war.
The president has slammed Iran's draft deal as 'weak and pathetic' and 'dishonorable' after it was published by state media.
Among the demands was a request for a whopping £225billion ($300billion) to call it a day.
Outraged, Trump has now hit out at Iran and has ordered them to 'get their act together' to work with one another.

It comes just 24 hours after Trump had claimed he had 'made a great deal'.
According to The Sun, Vice President JD Vance was set to fly to Geneva, in order to sign the deal with a view to ending the war this weekend.
Tehran has since shared a 14-point deal on state media.
They demanded the whopping cash sum in order to redevelop Iran, and they also refused to hand over control of the highly-controversial Strait of Hormuz.
The Strait is vital for import and export of oil and has been a key sticking point in negotiations.
According to the plan, the would still maintain control of the waterway, and also want to continue progressing their nuclear enrichment.
One of the other points demanded the United States 'commits to withdrawing its forces from the area around Iran'.
Trump has said the social media plan is 'nothing' to do with the US deal.
Taking to Truth Social, the president wrote furiously: “The terms that Iran leaked out to the Fake News have NOTHING to do with the terms that were agreed to, in writing.
“What they said, including their weak and pathetic statement on having a deal, bears no relation to the truth. Very dishonorable people to deal with.”
“With them, there is no such thing as dealing in good faith," he fumed.
“They better get their act together, and FAST!”
Trump had shared very few details about the US deal he had proposed and was supposedly being signed this weekend.
He also told the New York Post on Thursday: “It’s pretty much all wrapped up," which followed threats to strike Iran 'VERY HARD' in addition to seizing Kharg Island 'in the not too distant future'.
He has stressed though that it is very different than this 'leaked' and 'dishonorable' proposal that has been seen on social media.
The Sun quotes sources as saying Trumps deal had been approved by Iran at high levels, but it is not known if that includes Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei.
Pakistan officials said on Friday: “We can confirm that a final, agreed upon text of the peace deal has been reached and Pakistan is now working closely with both sides to finalize the next steps."
It remains to be seen if the deal will go ahead after this 'leaked' post of demands.
