Trump says he is likely to reject peace proposal as Iran has 'not yet paid a big enough price'

U.S. President Donald Trump said that he had yet to review the exact wording of a new Iranian peace proposal but he was unlikely to accept it, because the Iranians had not yet "paid a big enough price."

Trump's remarks on social media concluded a day in which he publicly mused about the possibility of restarting airstrikes, the latest mixed signal as he seeks to end the war he launched more than two months ago.

On Sunday, Israel ordered thousands of Lebanese to leave villages in southern Lebanon, an escalation of a war between Israel and Iran's Hezbollah allies that has run in parallel to the Iran war and could further complicate wider peace efforts.
