"I think they want to receive that letter. The other option is we have to do something, because we can't have another country with nuclear weapons," Mr. Trump added.

Iran has not commented on the above information.

The letter appears to have been sent to Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, Reuters reported. The White House has not confirmed the report.

According to President Trump, there are two ways to deal with Iran: militarily or by reaching a deal. "I prefer to reach a deal, because I don't want to hurt Iran. They're great people," the US leader said.
