Trump Rejects Iran's Seven-Day Ceasefire Proposal, Plans Military Action Post-Midterms

Trump Rejects Iran's Seven-Day Ceasefire Proposal, Plans Military Action Post-MidtermsPreviousNext

US President Donald Trump has rejected Iran's proposal for a seven-day ceasefire, with reports indicating he plans to resume military strikes against Iran after the November midterm elections. This follows Trump's recent statements at the UN General Assembly, where he threatened to annihilate Iran but expressed hope for a deal post-election. Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi outlined the ceasefire plan, which includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz and restarting nuclear negotiations, similar to a prior memorandum of understanding between the two countries.
