PNN – US President Donald Trump, who had underestimated the economic consequences of the aggression against Iran, especially regarding the Strait of Hormuz, on the fifteenth day of this attack, despite all his claims and contradictions, reached out to China and other countries of the world to open this important waterway.
Donald Trump, repeating his contradictory statements on his social media account Truth Social, claimed: Many countries, especially those affected by Iran’s attempt to close the Strait of Hormuz, will, along with the United States, dispatch their warships to keep the Strait open and secure.
Trump, who is under pressure from public opinion due to his miscalculations with rising energy prices in the United States and the world, as well as the consequences of his unjustified war, continued to claim the benefits of his aggression: We have already destroyed 100 percent of Iran’s military capability, but it is easy for them to send a drone or two, lay a mine, or launch a short-range missile somewhere along or into this waterway, no matter how defeated they are.
He then turned to the countries of the world and repeated his anti-Iranian claims, saying: We hope that China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK, and others affected by this artificial restriction will send ships to the region so that the Strait of Hormuz is no longer threatened by a country that has become powerless.
The war-mongering US president, repeating his threats and claiming to continue attacks and throw Iranian boats and ships out of the water, claimed: We will soon open, secure, and free the Strait of Hormuz!
The Strait of Hormuz is a vital channel through which 20% of the world’s oil passes.
