Trump 'not satisfied' with Iran proposal, cites 'disjointed' leadership

From the White House, President Donald Trump conveyed his dissatisfaction with Iran's recent proposal aimed at ending hostilities. Speaking to reporters, Trump characterized the Iranian leadership as deeply divided, with multiple factions struggling to agree on a unified path forward. "They are having tremendous discord in getting along in Iran; their leadership is really disjointed, and there are three, maybe four groups. They all want to make a deal, but they are all very messed up," he stated, highlighting a lack of clear leadership.

Trump further asserted that Iran's military has been significantly weakened, suggesting that even if the US were to withdraw immediately, it would take Iran two decades to rebuild its forces. "Their military's been defeated," he added, emphasizing the current power imbalance. Despite this, he confirmed that negotiations are ongoing, albeit conducted over the phone.
