US President Donald Trump has avoided answering a question about whether he is considering fresh strikes on Iran amid stalled negotiations.

Hours after Iran sent its latest proposal for talks with the US through mediators in Pakistan, Trump said he was 'not satisfied' with the proposal but gave no details about its clear weaknesses.

While negotiations are still underway, Trump is also claiming the war has been 'terminated' because of the ceasefire.

Iran's latest proposal includes discussing its terms for reopening the Strait of Hormuz while still insisting that the US commit to ending its attacks and lifting its blockade.

The future of the Strait of Hormuz remains central to the deadlock, with both Iran and the US waiting for the other side to act first before easing limits on movement.
