Trump Says Iran May Respond Soon to US Peace Proposal
(MENAFN) US President Donald Trump said Saturday that he expects an imminent response from Iran regarding Washington’s latest peace proposal, suggesting that Tehran remains interested in reaching an agreement.
In remarks made during a phone interview with French television station LCI, Trump stated that Iranian officials “still very much want to make a deal.”
The comments come amid heightened regional tensions following military strikes carried out by the United States and Israel against Iran on Feb. 28, which triggered retaliatory actions from Tehran against Israel and US-aligned Gulf states, as well as disruption in the Strait of Hormuz.
A ceasefire was later established on April 8 through mediation efforts led by Pakistan, though negotiations held in Islamabad did not result in a permanent settlement. Trump later extended the truce without specifying an end date.
He also referenced the temporary ceasefire linked to Victory Day between Russia and Ukraine, expressing hope that it could be prolonged. Trump claimed he played a direct role in facilitating discussions between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, saying, “I made the deal” between the two leaders.
