American President Donald Trump stated that after Iran's defeat, he could designate the Strait of Hormuz as territory of the United States. He said this during a speech in the state of New York, and according to available information, he spoke in a tone that suggested it might have been a joke. teraz.sk ↗
Trump already claimed on Wednesday on his Truth Social network that the United States has complete control over the Strait of Hormuz. The statement came at a time of tension surrounding Iran and the strategic maritime route through which a significant portion of world oil transportation passes. Later during a speech on Long Island, he again suggested that the strait could be declared American territory after Iran's defeat. zurnal.pravda.sk ↗
Tehran rejected these claims. The Iranian side responded that the Strait of Hormuz belonged to, belongs to, and will remain Iran's. The statement followed a broader verbal exchange between Washington and Tehran, in which the question of control over the strait became another point of contention. novinky.cz ↗
The Strait of Hormuz is of exceptional importance for international trade and energy security, as it connects the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman and the Indian Ocean. Further developments will depend on whether Trump's statements remain at the level of political rhetoric, or whether they translate into concrete steps by the American administration.
