Tehran: A senior Iranian military official has warned that a renewed war with the United States is \u201clikely\u201d, amid rising tensions over stalled diplomatic negotiations. The warning comes after US President Donald Trump <\/a>expressed dissatisfaction with a recent Iranian proposal.<\/p>\n

US President Donald Trump stated that he was \u201cnot satisfied\u201d with Iran\u2019s offer, signalling continued uncertainty over diplomatic progress. He also indicated a preference to avoid military escalation, although tensions remain high between both sides.<\/p>\n

According to state media reports, Iran\u2019s draft proposal was delivered to the United States through Pakistan as a mediator on Thursday evening. However, details of the proposal have not been officially disclosed.<\/p>\n

Iran questions US commitment to agreements<\/p>\n

Mohammad Jafar Asadi, a senior figure in Iran\u2019s military central command, suggested that Washington cannot be trusted to uphold commitments. He stated that past actions indicate a lack of adherence to agreements<\/a>, further complicating peace efforts.<\/p>\n

Reports suggest the Iranian draft included provisions related to reopening the Strait of Hormuz for normal shipping and easing restrictions on Iranian ports before further discussions on its nuclear programme.<\/p>\n

The conflict, which reportedly escalated after strikes involving the US and Israel earlier this year, has been under a temporary ceasefire. However, recent developments have raised concerns over the stability of the truce.<\/p>\n

Washington has maintained that any agreement must include guarantees preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons, a key sticking point in ongoing negotiations.<\/p>\n
