Trump reviews Iran peace proposal amid Middle East tensions. The US president said he'll examine Iran's latest peace plan while keeping military action on the table if the Islamic Republic misbehaves. Iran's proposal includes a one-month deadline for negotiations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, end the naval blockade, and halt fighting in Iran and Lebanon, followed by discussions on Iran's nuclear program. Trump expressed skepticism about the deal's acceptability, stating Iran hasn't paid a sufficient price for its actions. The conflict has killed thousands across the Middle East since late February. Energy markets remain volatile as the Strait of Hormuz blockage restricts about one-fifth of global oil and liquefied natural gas flows, driving up prices and raising concerns about potential political consequences in upcoming elections.
