U.S. President Donald Trump rejected Tehran's response to the latest U.S. peace proposal, calling it 'totally unacceptable.' Iran's response included demands for the lifting of sanctions, an end to the U.S. naval blockade, and guarantees against further attacks. The U.S. had proposed a deal to end the war, reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and roll back Iran's nuclear program. Tensions remain high, with Iran severely restricting the strait and the U.S. blockading Iranian ports.

U.S. markets showed mixed performance near record highs, with oil prices surging over 2% following President Trump's rejection of Iran's response to a U.S. peace proposal, calling it "TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!"
Escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran have led to a breakdown in ceasefire negotiations, with President Donald Trump calling Iran’s latest proposal “TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.”
In May 2026, Iran disclosed a list of demands sent to former President Donald Trump aimed at ending a 10-week-long conflict. The demands included compensation for war damages, recognition of Iranian sovereignty over the strategic Strait of Hormuz, lifting of U.S. sanctions, an end to naval blockades, a halt on attacks including in Lebanon, and the removal of the U.S. oil sales ban on Iran.
Tensions between Iran and the United States continue to intensify, with the ceasefire in their ongoing war growing increasingly unstable. Despite recent Iranian diplomatic outreach—including a new proposal delivered through Pakistan—U.S. President Donald Trump has rejected Tehran’s conditions as "totally unacceptable."
President Donald Trump’s swift rejection of Iran’s response to a U.S. peace proposal sent oil prices surging higher on Monday amid concerns the 10-week-old conflict will drag on, keeping shipping through the Strait of Hormuz paralyzed.
