US President Donald Trump has rejected an Iranian proposal aimed at ending regional fighting within seven days. According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump also expressed expectations that bombing against Iran would resume after the November congressional elections.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that Tehran had sent a plan to the US through Qatar, emphasizing that Iran would not accept coercion or threats. The plan, which was also raised at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, proposed reopening the Strait of Hormuz and ending hostilities in the region within a week.
Iran has made it clear that it would make no concessions on its nuclear program, with a senior Iranian official stating that there would be no flexibility on this issue even if the US accepts the peace deal. Araghchi said that if the US were to agree, wider talks on mutually agreed subjects could start.
