Iran’s top negotiator: Accept our proposal or ‘American taxpayers will pay for it’

Ghalibaf said the proposal would end the war in 30 days and warned that delay will leave American taxpayers paying more.

  • On Monday, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf declared the United States has "no alternative" but to accept Iran's 14-point proposal, though President Donald Trump later dismissed the plan, stating the ceasefire is "on life support."
  • A parliamentary spokesman, Ebrahim Rezaei, stated on Tuesday that enrichment could reach 90% if attacked again, following claims that a 12-day war last June "obliterated" nuclear facilities, limiting capacity.
  • Stressing firm positions, Mohammad Eslami, head of the Atomic Energy Organization, stated on Monday that nuclear enrichment is non-negotiable, while armed forces are "ready to deliver a well-deserved response to any aggression."
  • New sanctions were imposed on Monday targeting companies shipping oil to China to cut military funding, while restarting "Project Freedom" to guide vessels through the Strait of Hormuz is being considered.
  • Disruption caused by the blockade has forced energy producers to cut exports, with OPEC output dropping in April to its lowest in two decades, while the United Arab Emirates reported its main gas complex will not reach full capacity until next year.
