US President Donald Trump on Sunday said that the American Navy from now on will block any and all ships entering the Strait of Hormuz and would also interdict every vessel in international waters that had paid a toll to Iran
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said, “Iran promised to open the Strait of Hormuz, and they knowingly failed to do so. This caused anxiety, dislocation, and pain to many people and Countries throughout the World. They say they put mines in the water, even though all of their Navy, and most of their “mine droppers,” have been completely blown up.”
Trump’s latest move on the Strait of Hormuz comes after US and Iran failed to reach an agreement to end their war despite talks that concluded on Sunday in Islamabad, jeopardising the two-week ceasefire.
