'It's not acceptable to me': Trump rejects fresh Iran peace proposal

"It's not acceptable to me. I've studied it, I've studied everything — it's not acceptable," Trump told journalist Nathan Guttman of Kan News.

He also added that "the Iranians want to make a deal," but that he is not satisfied with what Tehran has proposed: "There are things I can't agree to."

Yesterday, Iranian officials said they had submitted another 14-point peace plan to the United States. The proposal reportedly focused primarily on restoring shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and ending the US naval blockade, while postponing nuclear negotiations to a later stage.

Meanwhile, CNN reports that according to Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei, the United States has already responded to Tehran's proposal via Pakistan, and Iran is currently reviewing the response. He also confirmed that the 14-point plan does not include nuclear issues.

"Our 14-point plan exclusively focuses on ending the war and contains no issues related to the nuclear domain. At this stage, our focus is on the specifics of ending the war in the region, including Lebanon," Baghaei said.

CNN also cited comments from Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff, who said the sides are negotiating.

Iran moves toward concessions

Amid this, Al Arabiya reported that Tehran has decided to drop some of its previous demands.

According to the outlet sources, Iran has agreed to bring its nuclear program to the negotiating table with the United States, proposing to limit uranium enrichment to 3.5% and gradually reduce its existing stockpile of enriched uranium.

Tehran has also dropped its demand for the withdrawal of US troops from the region. Instead, Iran now seeks to curb the US military buildup near its borders and obtain international guarantees against future attacks.

It remains unclear whether such a plan has already been formally delivered to the United States.
