The article discusses U.S. President Donald Trump's plan to declare the Strait of Hormuz as American territory, highlighting a map he published that depicts the strait as "new American lands" following his statements about intending to do so after "defeating Iran." International law experts warn that this move is illegal, as Washington cannot annex the area without Iran's approval and in accordance with international agreements; they pointed out that actual control does not imply legal ownership.
