WASHINGTON, June 12 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday that Iran's leaked comments on a deal with the United States do not represent what has been 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. AMAZING!," he wrote on Truth Social.

"They better get their act together, and FAST!," Trump said.

Trump said on Thursday he was calling off new strikes on Iran because a deal had been reached.

Terms of the deal as described on Friday byIranian officials appear to offer Tehran much of what it has demanded so far, with Trump appearing to win little of what he has sought, beyond the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, whichIranshut after he ordered attacks in February.

A seniorIranian source told Reuters on Friday that the draft would waive sanctions onIran's oil, unfreeze billions of dollars of its funds, and require a cessation of hostilities on all fronts, including in Lebanon.

Nuclear issues would be set aside for later talks. Washington wants a deal to ensure thatIrannever develops a nuclear weapon;Iransays it is not seeking one.

The waiving of sanctions, unfreezing ofIranian assets and halt to Israeli attacks on Lebanon are essentialIranian demands. The source made no mention of whatIranmight offer in return.
