US President Donald Trump on Monday said the United States is “taking over” the Strait of Hormuz. Minutes later, Iran issued its own statement declaring the same strait closed, blaming recent US military action. Trump said Iranian leaders had taken part in an 11-hour round of negotiations with the US, during which “everything was agreed to”, before Iran later began asking for changes. “We’re going to keep the strait, and we’ll probably run it. We’ll become the guardian of the strait. Maybe we’ll call it the guardian angel of the strait. And we should be reimbursed for that,” he said. #US #Iran #USIran #IranUS #USIranwar #IranUSwar #USNews #IranNews #WorldNews #WorldPolitics #NDTVWorld
