Trump to Axios: “I don’t like” Iran’s peace plan response

President Trump told Axios in a short phone call on Sunday that he would reject Iran's response to the latest draft agreement to end the war. Why it matters: The U.S. waited 10 days for the Iranian response, which came on Sunday. The White House hoped Iran's positions would show further progress toward a deal, but Trump's initial reaction signals the opposite.What he is saying: "I don't like their letter. It's inappropriate. I don't like their response," Trump said, declining to go into further details about what was in the response. "They have been tapping along many nations for 47 years," he said.State of play: Trump said he'd spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday and discussed the Iranian response, among other things."It was a very nice call. We have a good relationship," he said of Netanyahu, but he added that the Iran negotiations are "my situation, not everybody else's."What to watch: Trump didn't make clear in the brief interview whether he intends to continue negotiations, or potentially opt for military action.
