Trump Rejects Iran Peace Proposal, Oil Prices Surge Amid Regional Conflict
US President Donald Trump rejected Iran’s latest peace proposal to end the ongoing US-Israeli war, labeling it 'totally unacceptable.' The rejection, announced on May 10, dashed hopes for a negotiated settlement and caused global oil prices to spike above $100 per barrel. Iran’s proposal included demands for war reparations, sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz, and the lifting of US sanctions. In response, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian affirmed that dialogue does not equate to surrender. The continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz has triggered a global energy crisis, severely impacting nations in South and Southeast Asia. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged citizens to reduce oil consumption, while ASEAN countries explored regional fuel stockpiles to mitigate supply disruptions. Saudi Aramco reported a loss of one billion barrels of oil since the conflict began, warning that price normalization could take months even if the war ends. The situation has also disrupted fertilizer supplies, raising concerns about agricultural production and food security in import-dependent regions.
