American President Donald Trump announced that after the end of war with Iran, he plans to declare the Strait of Hormuz as territory of the United States. The statement came at a time when the deadline for an agreement is approaching and, according to available information, a peaceful solution appears distant. Le Figaro ↗
Tehran responded negatively. Iranian Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Kazem Gharibabadi stated overnight on Saturday that the Strait of Hormuz was, is, and will remain under Iranian control. According to the Iranian side, the strait will be opened and closed only at Iran's command. Tehran simultaneously urged the United States to accept defeat in the dispute over the strategic waterway. ihned.cz ↗
Trump meanwhile called Tehran "very bad" and warned Americans that they should prepare for continuing high fuel prices as a result of the war. Reports also focus on the situation aboard the American aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, where information has emerged about attempted suicides and food shortages. Trump rejected concerns about the living conditions of sailors. Tagesspiegel ↗
The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the key points of the conflict, as it is a strategic maritime route. The latest statements from both sides suggest that tensions over its control may further complicate negotiations and the broader course of the war.
