[U.S. Energy Secretary Takes Full Responsibility for Erroneous Post] U.S. Energy Secretary Wright stated today that he will take full responsibility for the erroneous post on X and will personally review future posts to prevent such incidents from happening again. Yesterday, Wright posted on X claiming that naval forces had escorted an oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz, but later deleted the post, causing significant fluctuations in the oil market. When asked about Wright's deletion of the post, White House Press Secretary Levitt said that the U.S. had not escorted any vessels. Earlier today, Wright stated that the U.S. Navy is currently unable to provide escort services for vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz but noted that it is "very likely" this arrangement could be implemented by the end of the month.
