'Strait of Trump': US head states Iran must open key waterway
WASHINGTON: US Head Donald Trump on Friday insisted Iran must open up the Strait of Hormuz to oil traffic to make a calm pact — and dubbed the crucial waterway the "Strait of Trump."
Trump, who has renamed several buildings in Washington after himself during his second term, stated his comment was a "mistake" but then further stated that "there's no accidents with me."
Repeating his claims that Tehran is ready to make a pact despite its denials, the 79-year-old US head stated that dialogue were underway to negotiate an end to the month-long dispute.
Trump further stated that Iran was "on the run" and restated again assertions that Tehran's leadership, fleet, aerial legal defence team and nuclear programme had all suffered significant damage.
"We're negotiating now, and it would be great if we could do something, but they have to open it up," Trump informed a Saudi-backed FII Priority investment forum in Miami.
