Iran, Trump: ‘Naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz with immediate effect’

Frankfurt (Germany), 12 Apr. (LaPresse) – “So here is the situation: the meeting went well, most points were agreed upon, but the one point that really mattered – the nuclear issue – was not. With immediate effect, the US Navy, the best in the world, will begin the process of blocking all ships attempting to enter or leave the Strait of Hormuz. At some point, we will reach a situation where ‘everyone will be allowed in, everyone will be allowed out’, but Iran has not allowed this, merely saying: ‘There might be a mine out there somewhere’, of which no one is aware except them. This is global extortion, and the leaders of nations, especially the United States of America, will never allow themselves to be extorted.” This was written by the President of the United States, Donald Trump, in a post on his social media platform Truth.
