President Donald Trump on Wednesday commented on Iran’s proposal for a 45-day ceasefire, calling it a significant step but insufficient. Trump stated that Iran had made a proposal, which he acknowledged as an important step. “It’s a proposal and it’s a significant step.
It’s not good enough, but it’s a very significant step. They are negotiating now, and they have made a very important step,” Trump told reporters during the annual White House Days of Peace event. The president’s remarks followed the presentation of a draft agreement aimed at ending hostilities in the region.
Trump indicated he would observe the outcome of the negotiations. He did not express a definitive stance on the proposal itself, focusing instead on the fact that Iran had initiated a dialogue and presented a formal offer. The White House has previously maintained a firm position regarding Iran’s nuclear program and regional activities.
