[Trump: No Country Can Control the Strait of Hormuz, the U.S. Will Oversee It]
According to Golden Finance, on May 28, U.S. President Trump stated on Wednesday local time that the Strait of Hormuz will remain open to everyone and will not be controlled by any country, regardless of any agreement reached with Iran. Trump said: 'We will oversee it, but no one will have direct control over it. This is part of our negotiation process.' He did not specify what measures the U.S. would take to ensure the safe passage of ships through the strait.
Trump's remarks have cast doubt on whether a breakthrough between the U.S. and Iran can be achieved immediately. Previously, both sides had recently indicated progress, leading the market to hold an optimistic outlook on reaching an agreement. However, the situation in the strait remains a critical sticking point in the negotiations.
Trump stated that the U.S. is 'not satisfied' with the results of negotiations aimed at ending the nearly three-month-long war and noted, 'Perhaps we need to reassess and finish this war,' though he did not elaborate on whether this implied further military action.
Trump also downplayed the possibility of lifting sanctions on Iran. 'We are absolutely not talking about easing sanctions or releasing funds or anything like that. That’s completely out of the question,' he said.
