United States President Donald Trump attending a series of events in Davos, Switzerland, January 22, 2026. Beyond the issue of impeachment, a number of political opponents have begun to voice their concerns about using the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office. This discourse was fueled by concerns about the president's mental stability, following the resurfacing of the Greenland acquisition issue and a series of other aggressive behaviors. Shutterstock

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - In another post on his Truth Social platform, US President Donald Trump appeared to be upset with Iran's response to his 15-point peace proposal.

He called Iranian negotiators "different" and "strange."

He said, "they are 'begging' us to make a deal, which they should be doing since they have been militarily obliterated, with zero chance of a comeback."

However, he cited the Iranian side as saying they are only "looking at our proposal."

"WRONG!!! They better get serious soon, before it is too late, because once that happens, there is NO TURNING BACK, and it won’t be pretty!" Trump exclaimed.

Iran Rejects US 15-Point Proposal; Sets Own Conditions to End War

As reported earlier, Iran's initial response to the US 15-point plan to end the war, which was conveyed to Pakistan, was that it was "one-sided and unfair," Reuters news agency reports.

The report cited an unnamed Iranian official.

The official told Reuters that a path forward might still be found if realism prevailed in Washington.

The official said the proposal "was reviewed in detail on Wednesday night by senior ‌Iranian officials and the representative of ‌Iran's supreme leader."

"In brief, the proposal suggests that Iran would relinquish its ability to defend itself in exchange for a vague plan to lift sanctions," he said, adding that the proposal lacked the minimum requirements for success.

He said there was "still ‌no arrangement for negotiations, and no plan for talks appears realistic at this stage," while Turkey and Pakistan were trying to help "establish common ground between Iran and the United States and reduce differences."

Iran responded to the US 15-point plan last night, semiofficial state news agency Tasnim has also reported. The report said Tehran's response was passed on through intermediaries. Tehran is now waiting on Washington's response.

Pakistan has been facilitating back-channel communications between Iran and the US.

Iran set out its own conditions to end the war after rejecting a ceasefire plan backed by the Trump administration.
