President Donald Trump said Saturday that Iran made an offer to the US about 10 minutes after he canceled the trip his special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner were set to make to Pakistan in an effort to continue peace negotiations.

He told reporters before boarding Air Force One in Palm Beach, Florida, on Saturday that Tehran 'offered a lot, but not enough.'

'They gave us a paper that should have been better,' Trump said. 'And interestingly, immediately when I canceled it, within ten minutes, we got a new paper that was much better.'

Trump also reiterated his claim that there is 'tremendous infighting' within Iran's government. He said Iranian officials are 'probably fighting for leadership,' adding that he will 'deal with whoever runs the show.' 

Iran has not yet acknowledged or confirmed what Trump said about its supposed 'offer.' The country's remaining leaders often contradict the president's statements on the status of diplomacy between itself and the United States. 

Trump's remarks came after it was revealed that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi left Pakistan on Saturday without meeting the US delegation.

Iranian officials previously said it was not yet ready to hold a new round of face-to-face talks with American officials, citing Washington's refusal to abandon 'maximalist' demands on key issues.

Tehran also said it will not hand over its enriched uranium to the US, rejecting claims made by Trump.

Iran has further asked asked how they can trust the US after talks last year and early this year over Tehran's nuclear program ended with it being attacked by the US and Israel. 

Trump earlier posted on Truth Social: 'I just cancelled the trip of my representatives going is Islamabad, Pakistan, to meet with the Iranians. 

'Too much time wasted on traveling, too much work! Besides which, there is tremendous infighting and confusion within their "leadership." Nobody knows who is in charge, including them. Also, we have all the cards, they have none! If they want to talk, all they have to do is call!!!'

Araghchi arrived in Islamabad on Friday and held a series of meetings with Pakistani Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Saturday.

They discussed what Araghchi described as Iran's red lines for negotiations, and said Tehran would engage with Pakistan's mediation efforts 'until a result is achieved.' 

An open-ended ceasefire has paused most fighting in Iran, but the economic fallout grows with global shipments of oil, liquefied natural gas, fertilizer and other supplies disrupted by the near-closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
