"When asked about the status of the ceasefire on Monday, Trump told reporters: "I would call it the weakest right now, after reading that piece of garbage they sent us. I didn't even finish reading it." "The ceasefire is on massive life support, where the doctor walks in and says, 'Sir, your loved one has approximately a one percent chance of living,'" the US president said."
"In its response, released on Sunday, Tehran called for an end to the war on all fronts, including in Lebanon, demanded compensation for war damage and emphasized its sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz. Iran also called on the US to end its naval blockade, guarantee that there would be no further attacks, lift sanctions, and remove the ban on Iranian oil sales."
"Washington had proposed an end to the fighting as a precursor to negotiations on more contentious issues, including Iran's nuclear program."
The US President said a ceasefire with Iran is on “life support” after rejecting Tehran’s latest response to a US peace proposal. He characterized the response as “totally unacceptable” and said he did not finish reading it. Iran’s reply called for ending the war on all fronts, including in Lebanon, and demanded compensation for war damage. Iran emphasized sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz and urged the US to end its naval blockade, guarantee no further attacks, lift sanctions, and remove the ban on Iranian oil sales. The US proposal sought an end to fighting as a step toward negotiations on harder issues, including Iran’s nuclear program.
