Iran insists on diplomatic solution after Trump rejects peace plan
Iran says only a negotiated solution can end the standoff after Trump rejected its seven-day ceasefire and Hormuz reopening proposal, officials said.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump told Axios he is "always thinking" about resuming strikes against Iran while simultaneously expecting "more talks" with Iranian negotiators this week.
- Iran submitted a proposal to the United States on Friday to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but Trump rejected it, asserting Iranian leaders wanted the deal because "they are losing so badly."
- Indirect talks involving Qatari mediators could occur as early as Monday, following discussions between United States envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi at the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
- Trump told Axios, "They want to make a deal, but it is not the deal that I want to make," while experts warn his economic pressure strategy could "backfire" with deadly consequences.
- Previously, Trump threatened to "annihilate the Islamic Republic" during his address to the General Assembly and reportedly told aides he expects to resume bombing Iran after the midterms.
