Trump calls Iran ceasefire "on massive life support" after nuclear rebuff

Iran omitted a key US demand to extract highly enriched uranium from its written counter-proposal, prompting Trump to dismiss their response as "a piece of garbage" he "didn't even finish reading." The President convenes a national security meeting today with Rubio, Hegseth, and CIA Director Ratcliffe after Iranian state television called the US proposal "Iran's capitulation to Trump's unreasonable demands." Trump estimates the month-long ceasefire has "approximately a 1% chance of living," with Axios sources indicating he's weighing military options including reviving "Project Freedom" to escort ships through the blocked Strait of Hormuz. The uranium extraction was previously agreed verbally but disappeared from Iran's written response, suggesting Tehran is testing Trump's resolve while energy markets brace for resumed bombing of the 25 percent of Iranian targets left untouched.
