Trump calls Iran's response to a U.S. proposal to end.

We're totally unacceptable.

This is a BBC story. Tom.

Rob, I think you got a tweet or something on that to read.

Iran's semi-official Sunim News Agency said Tehran's proposal sent via Pakistan,

which has served as a mediator, included an immediate end to the war on all fronts,

a halt to U.S. naval blockade and guarantees of no further attacks on Iran, a ceasefire

meant to facilitate talks to end the war launched by the U.S. and Israel in February has been

largely observing despite occasional exchange fire. So while this has taken place, here's what the

president had to say. This is the tweet that came out. I have just read the response from Iran's

so-called representative. I don't like

it. Totally unacceptable. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Tom, how much progress is being

made right now? Because the president, Pezzychian, from Iran, did not directly reference to the

proposal, but said, we will never bow our heads before the enemy. And if talk of dialogue or negotiation arises, it does not mean surrender or retreat. Trump posted on truth social. I've just read the response. And Trump also said they can call us. No one's calling us. They can call us. So Trump is saying if you want to do something, you can give us a call, and they're not saying at any time, they're going to start losing money to be able to pay their

military personnel, their government personnel, and then when they do, they're going to get desperate.

But you hear different stories. Tom, your thoughts?

We've been waiting for Iran to respond as a rational actor and get desperate now for three weeks.

They haven't because they're not a rational actor.

And you've got things like the British over the weekend said that they were going to send a frigate to the Gulf to help with the safe passage of ships. Did you see that, Pat? Yeah. They're like, even the British are saying, okay, we're going to send a ship and we're going to join you to create a safe passage patrol here. Price of oil today went back up three bucks.
