Iran has put forward a new proposal for negotiations with the United States aimed at bringing an end to the ongoing war in the Middle East, now entering its third month. 

The initiative was reportedly delivered on Friday through a Pakistani intermediary, signaling renewed diplomatic efforts to de-escalate tensions in the region.

The proposal, however, was met with swift skepticism from U.S. President Donald Trump, who expressed dissatisfaction with its terms. “I’m not happy with it,” Trump said, adding that “Iran is asking for things that I cannot agree to.” His remarks underscore the persistent gap between the two sides despite mounting international pressure to reach a settlement.

Details of Tehran’s proposal have not been fully disclosed, but it is understood to include demands that Washington views as incompatible with its strategic objectives. The involvement of Pakistan as a mediator highlights the increasing role of regional actors in facilitating dialogue amid a complex and volatile geopolitical landscape.

The diplomatic exchange comes at a critical moment, as the conflict continues to strain regional stability and raise concerns over broader escalation. Observers note that while backchannel negotiations remain active, significant obstacles continue to hinder progress toward a comprehensive agreement.
