Trump calls Iran response to US proposal to end war 'totally unacceptable'

Iran sent its reply through Pakistani mediators, but Trump called it totally unacceptable as the U.S. military keeps blocking Iranian ports.

  • President Trump officially rejected Iran’s latest diplomatic response on Sunday, May 10, 2026, characterized the counter-proposal as a continuation of "games" by the Iranian leadership.
  • In a statement posted to Truth Social, the President dismissed the formal reply from Tehran as "totally unacceptable," asserting that the Iranian government has spent decades using delay tactics and would "be laughing no longer" at the United States.
  • The Iranian counter-offer, delivered via Pakistani mediators, sought to pivot the negotiations toward a comprehensive end to the war on all regional fronts—including the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah—while demanding the immediate lifting of U.S. economic sanctions.
  • The U.S. proposal reportedly included ending the conflict, reopening the Strait of Hormuz and scaling back Iran’s nuclear program, while Trump accused Tehran of “playing games” with Washington for decades.
  • Iran has continued restricting traffic through the Strait of Hormuz as the U.S. military says it has blockaded Iranian ports and struck Iranian oil tankers, with Tehran warning of retaliation and pledging to protect its uranium facilities.
