Trump says ceasefire on ‘life support’, slams Iran response to US proposal

US President Donald Trump has dismissed Iran's response to a US peace proposal as "stupid" and "the weakest" after reading it, fuelling concerns that the conflict will drag on. Trump claims the ceasefire is "on life support" and that Iran is willing to give the US "the nuclear dust". Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman defends its proposal, saying its demands are "reasonable" and only seek to assert its legitimate rights. The search for an agreement between the US and Iran remains elusive, with Trump threatening a return to war without concessions.
