US President Donald Trump on Friday referred to the Strait of Hormuz as a potential “gusher” for the world and spoken about “opening it for the world.”
In a post on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump wrote, “With a little more time, we can easily OPEN THE HORMUZ STRAIT, TAKE THE OIL, & MAKE A FORTUNE. IT WOULD BE A “GUSHER” FOR THE WORLD??? President DONALD J. TRUMP”
Trump’s remarks come amid the conflict of US-Israel and Iran, that has entered its second month now.
Earlier on Friday, the spokesperson of Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters issued a stern warning, emphasising that any assault on the country’s bridges, power plants, or energy facilities will trigger severe retaliatory measures, reported state media Press TV.
