Donald Trump has expressed dissatisfaction with Iran’s latest enigmatic peace proposal aimed at resolving the ongoing conflict that has persisted for two months.

Speaking to reporters on the White House lawn, the President mentioned his skepticism about reaching an agreement, stating, “I’m not sure we’re going to get a deal.” He further commented, “They [Iran] all want to make a deal, but they’re all messed up.”

He reiterated his stance, saying, “Iran wants to make a deal, but I’m not satisfied with it. They want to make a deal because they have no military left.”

When asked to elaborate on his dissatisfaction with Iran’s proposal, the President explained that Tehran is “asking for things I can’t agree to.”

Trump also pointed to internal conflicts within Iran’s leadership as a hurdle in negotiations, stating, “They’re having a tremendous problem getting along with each other. In Iran, the leadership is very disjointed. It’s got two to three groups, maybe four, and it’s a very disjointed leadership.”

Iran has reached out through Pakistani intermediaries with a fresh proposal to the U.S., aiming to resolve the impasse and to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial route that facilitates the transport of one-fifth of the world’s oil supply.

The exact details of the proposal remain unclear. The White House has demanded that Iran suspend its nuclear program and hand over its enriched uranium to the US as conditions for signing a peace agreement.

Tehran, meanwhile, wants the US to end economic sanctions and give them control over the strait.

Trump later told reporters that Iran has ‘made strides’ in current peace talks with the us, ‘but I’m not sure if they ever get there.’ 

Iran had previously indicated a willingness to reopen the strait but stopped short of offering any concrete concessions on its nuclear program.. 

The regime has used small groups of speedboats to attack and seize oil tankers attempting to move cargo through the strait, as well as laying sea mines. 

Trump has responded by imposing a naval blockade on Iranian ports to pressure Tehran back to the negotiating table.

The closure of the strait has had a significant economic impact on the global energy market. 

Gas is now at its highest price since the consumer inflation crisis of July 2022, according to the data from AAA.

Oil prices remain volatile after climbing briefly above $120 a barrel due to market concerns about the Iran war continuing.

Brent crude, the economic benchmark for global oil, traded above $126 but then fell below $115 a barrel.

Before the war, the average barrel of Brent traded for approximately $72, according to the New York Times.

Soaring oil prices are capable of affecting the average consumer far beyond the gas pump, driving up the cost of groceries, shipping, and virtually every consumer good that has to be transported or manufactured.

Trump has stopped short of strikes since an April 7 ceasefire was reached, though gas prices remain high and his poll numbers remain on the wane.
