U.S. President says Washington is in the process of gaining control over the Strait of Hormuz

U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the United States is currently controlling the Strait of Hormuz to protect international navigation. He mentioned that Americans have been safeguarding the strait for the past 50 years without any charge. He affirmed that Washington will impose fees on ships crossing if negotiations fail and threatened to strike Iran militarily if its allies' actions continue. He also pointed out that the recent memorandum of understanding was merely an extension of a ceasefire and did not represent a final agreement. These statements come amid renewed clashes in the region, following attacks on ships, after a ceasefire agreement was reached between Iran and the United States.
