Trump says Iran has not yet ‘paid a big enough price’ as he reviews new peace proposal

Key Points:

• Donald Trump announced he would review a new 14-point peace proposal from Iran, sent via Pakistan, but expressed skepticism, stating Iran had not yet "paid a big enough price" for its actions over the past 47 years.
• The Iranian proposal reportedly includes demands such as the withdrawal of US forces near Iran, lifting the blockade on the Strait of Hormuz, releasing frozen Iranian assets, compensation payments, lifting sanctions, ending the war on all fronts, and implementing a new control mechanism for the strait.
• Despite the ceasefire in the ongoing conflict since April 8 and one failed round of peace talks, the US insists on a deal that prevents Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, while Iran maintains its nuclear program is peaceful and is prepared for either diplomacy or confrontation.
• Trump hinted at the possibility of new military action against Iran if Tehran "misbehaves," while the US also warned shipping companies they could face sanctions for making payments to Iran for safe passage through the strategic Strait of Hormuz.
• The conflict has severely disrupted global energy supplies, with oil prices about 50% higher than prewar levels, as Iran controls the strait and the US enforces a naval blockade targeting Iranian oil revenue.
