Trump Asserts Iran Wants to End War. Tehran Says No Proposal

President Donald Trump said Iran is ready to make a deal to end the war but the US wants better terms, signaling no letup in a conflict that’s brought shipping in the strategic Strait of Hormuz to a near standstill and upended energy markets.

Separately, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the Islamic Republic is open to “any regional initiative that leads to a fair end to the war,” according to an interview published by the UK-based Al-Araby Al-Jadeed news website on Sunday. He added that no specific proposal has yet been presented.

On today's show, Bloomberg This Weekend hosts David Gura and Christina Ruffini speak with:

- Philip Crowther, Associated Press International Correspondent, Joumanna Bercetche, Bloomberg Anchor on "Horizons Middle East and Africa," and Bloomberg News Washington Deputy Bureau Chief Laura Davidson on President Trump's comments that the United States needs better terms to reach a deal to end the war with Iran.

- EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin on the war in Iran and the ever changing energy markets.

- United States Representatives Adam Smith (D-WA) and Michael Lawler (R-NY) to discuss what their opinions are on President Trump's actions in Iran and the Middle East.
