A fragile diplomatic effort to ease tensions between Iran and the United States has hit a major roadblock after Donald Trump rejected Tehran's latest proposal, exposing deep divisions over how to end months of conflict in the Middle East.
Tehran's proposal, delivered through international mediators, outlines a phased approach aimed at first reducing immediate hostilities before tackling more complex issues such as Iran's nuclear program. While Iranian officials framed the offer as a practical path toward de-escalation, Trump dismissed it, saying it failed to meet core US demands.
