U.S. President Donald Trump said Saturday he is not bothered about the outcome of the U.S.-Iran talks in Pakistan.

Trump insisted that the United States had come out ahead from the war. "Whether we make a deal or not makes no difference to me. The reason is because we've won," Trump told reporters when departing the White House.

"We're in very deep negotiations with Iran. So we win regardless," Trump said.

"We've defeated them militarily. We've defeated their military. They have no navy. 158 ships are underwater. Undersea. All of their minesweepers," he claimed.
