💡 🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran has sent a 10-point response (via Pakistan) to a U.S. proposal to end the war, rejecting a temporary ceasefire and instead demanding a permanent end on its own terms.

Iran says a ceasefire alone is not acceptable → wants a lasting settlement.

Demands include:
End of regional fighting.
Sanctions relief.
Reconstruction support.
Safe transit rules in the Strait of Hormuz.

#️⃣ 🇺🇸🇮🇷 A U.S. official says Iran sent a 10-point response Monday to the war-ending proposal, calling it “maximalist” and unclear if it allows progress toward diplomacy.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump on Iran:

They made a significant proposal. It is not good enough but it is very significant.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: How is the rescued airmen doing?

Trump: They are both doing well.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Iran got a little bit lucky with the F-15s.

You sometimes need luck in war.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

We think the new regime in Iran is much smarter than the previous ones.

We had total regime change.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

If I had my choice, what would I like to do? Take the oil.

Unfortunately, the American people would like to see us come home.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

If it were up to me, I would like to keep the oil. I just don’t think the people of the United States would really understand.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

When the Iranian people don’t hear bombs, they get upset; they want to hear bombs.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

We sent some guns; they were supposed to go to the people of Iran. You know what happened? The people we sent them through kept them.

I am very upset with a certain group of people, and they will pay a big price for that.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

The Iranian people will fight back as soon as they get weapons.

If they had weapons, Iran would give up in two seconds.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Iran has some missiles left. Some drones left.

Essentially they have no capability.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

We have some helicopters with a lot of bullet holes; you probably know that.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

We could leave Iran right now, but I want to finish it up.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: What do you say to Americans who are not a fan of the war?

Trump: They are foolish.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

They have killed 45,000 protesters; we don’t do that.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: How would it not be a war crime to strike Iran’s bridges and power plants?

Trump: They’re animals.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Who is talking about 45 days?

The only one that’s going to set a ceasefire is me. I haven’t set any ceasefire.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: Do you expect JD Vance could be involved in an in-person meeting with officials in the coming days?

Trump: Could be. Could be. Could be.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump on Iran rescue operation:

It was very risky because we could have lost 100–200 people in order to get one.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump compares Iran to Venezuela:

Money is coming in like never before. Frankly, we could do the same here.

If it were up to me, I’d just take the oil.

I don't know if the American public wants that.
