The President of the United States, Donald Trump, claimed that Iran will allow the transit of 20 tankers through the Strait of Hormuz. During a conversation with journalists on the presidential plane, the leader indicated that Iran has decided to allow the passage of the ships on Monday as a gift and a sign of respect towards the U.S. The leader also emphasised that talks with Iran are progressing and that both countries will reach an agreement in the near future. However, Trump’s comments come in the context of increased U.S. military presence.
Trump says that Iran will allow the passage of 20 oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz and does not rule out «taking its oil.»
