Trump: I Will Soon Declare the Strait of Hormuz U.S. Territory
ARK News.. U.S. President Donald Trump called on Americans to accept the current increase in fuel prices, describing it as a “necessary price” to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, in a move that has sparked widespread controversy.
In a speech delivered in Garden City, New York, U.S. President Donald Trump said Americans facing additional financial burdens at gas stations should understand that this “small amount” is intended to ensure that what he described as a “very evil country” does not possess a nuclear weapon.
The U.S. president added, stressing his position: “What we are doing is a great service to the entire world, not just to ourselves,” emphasizing that he would not back down from his decision to attack Iran.
In what was described as an unprecedented statement in the history of U.S. foreign policy, Trump said: “After we finish defeating Iran... I will very soon declare the Strait of Hormuz to be U.S. territory.”
