US President Donald Trump has said he is reviewing a new Iranian proposal aimed at ending the ongoing conflict, but expressed strong skepticism about its acceptability. The proposal, reportedly a multi-point plan delivered through mediators, comes as a fragile ceasefire of about three weeks continues to hold. Trump indicated that Iran’s terms may be unacceptable, stressing that any agreement must ensure Tehran never develops nuclear weapons. He also warned that military action could resume if negotiations fail. The conflict, which began after US-Israel strikes earlier in 2026, has disrupted global oil supplies and heightened regional tensions, making diplomatic resolution increasingly urgent. (PC: The Hindu)
