France 24 reports that Iran delivered a fresh proposal for talks with the United States to Pakistani mediators, while President Donald Trump responded that the US was “not satisfied” with the offer. Middle East Eye quotes Iran’s foreign minister urging Washington to abandon “threatening rhetoric” for diplomacy, and separately notes Trump’s statement that Iran “wants a deal” but the US remains unsatisfied. The three sources agree on the existence of a new Iranian proposal and US disappointment, but differ on emphasis: France 24 highlights the proposal’s delivery, ME Eye focuses on diplomatic language, and Trump’s own comment is presented in a separate ME Eye live‑blog.
