Trump Confirms He Will View Iran Peace Proposal
President Donald Trump confirmed he would review a recent peace proposal from Iran, adding that Iran had spoken to him “about the concept of the deal.”
While answering questions from reporters, Trump was asked about Iran’s latest peace proposal. Trump explained that he would watch it on the plane.
“I’ll tell you later,” Trump said.
Another reporter asked about Trump, saying the United States “may be better off not making a deal with Iran.”
“Well, I wouldn’t have to, I didn’t say that, I said if we left now it would take them twenty years to rebuild, but we’re not leaving now,” Trump said. “We’re going to do this so no one has to go back in two or five years.”
Trump added that the Iranians had spoken to him “about the concept of the deal” and would give him “the exact wording now.”
In an article on Truth Social, Trump said he would “soon review the plan” that Iran had sent, adding that he did not think “it would be acceptable as they have not yet paid a high enough price for what they have done” over the past 47 years.
“I will soon review the plan that Iran just sent us, but I cannot imagine that it is acceptable to the extent that they have not yet paid a high enough price for what they have done to humanity and the world over the last 47 years,” Trump said. “Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
According to Iran’s Tasnim news agency, Iran has “submitted a 14-point response to the US proposal to end” the ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran, NPR reported.
The plan’s demands would include “a demand to resolve all issues and end the war within 30 days, instead of observing a two-month ceasefire,” and “guarantees against future military aggression,” as well as “withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iran’s periphery.”
