Trump Rejects Iran's Seven-Day Ceasefire Proposal, Military Action May Resume After MidtermsPreviousNext

US President Donald Trump has rejected Iran's proposal for a seven-day ceasefire aimed at ending regional conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's plan, conveyed through mediators, included lifting US naval blockades and sanctions, followed by renewed nuclear talks. Trump reportedly told aides he expects military strikes against Iran to resume after the November midterm elections. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian emphasized distrust between the two nations and said the peace process would begin once the US accepts the proposal.
