US President Donald Trump stated he is "not satisfied" with a new proposal from Iran regarding peace negotiations, as talks remain stalled despite a ceasefire that has been in place since April. Iran delivered its draft proposal to Pakistan, but details remain undisclosed. Trump attributed the lack of progress to internal discord within Iran's leadership and expressed a preference for negotiation over military action. Meanwhile, the US continues to impose sanctions, affecting Iran's economy, which is suffering from inflation rates exceeding 50%. The US military's blockade has reportedly halted $6 billion in Iranian oil exports. Although the ceasefire has held, fighting persists in other areas, particularly between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. The US also announced significant arms sales to its Middle Eastern allies, including a $4 billion missile deal with Qatar. Amid these developments, Iran's judiciary chief emphasized the country's willingness to negotiate but rejected any imposed terms. The ongoing situation has left many in Iran feeling hopeless, with citizens struggling to afford basic necessities.
