U.S. President Donald Trump says the fragile ceasefire between the United States and Iran is on “massive life support,” warning that the agreement may not hold. Multiple outlets report Trump made the comments after he rejected Tehran’s latest proposal for ending the war, with Iran describing itself as ready to respond to potential renewed aggression. Trump characterizes Iran’s response as unacceptable, and several reports note he used harsh language to describe the proposal and suggested the ceasefire’s prospects are very limited. Reuters and other outlets cited in this collection also describe a ceasefire set in place for the period of renewed diplomacy following earlier fighting. NBC, Bloomberg, and other reports say the administration is weighing whether operations could resume if diplomacy fails. CBS News and The Independent add that fears are growing fighting could return as negotiations appear to stall. Separate reporting also reflects Iran’s negotiators criticizing the U.S. approach while signaling that delay could increase costs for American taxpayers. Overall, all accounts describe the same sequence: Trump rejects Iran’s latest offer and publicly questions the ceasefire’s durability.
