Trump Rejects Iran's Peace Proposal Amid Ongoing Gulf Conflict and Nuclear Concerns

US President Donald Trump has rejected Iran's response to a US peace proposal aimed at ending the ongoing conflict in the Gulf region, calling it "totally unacceptable." Iran's counterproposal, delivered through Pakistani mediators, includes demands for lifting sanctions, ending the US naval blockade, withdrawing American forces, compensation for war damages, and recognition of Iranian sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu emphasized that the conflict continues until Iran's enriched uranium stockpile is removed. The rejection has heightened tensions and disrupted diplomatic efforts to resolve the conflict.
