US has almost total control of Hormuz, Iran's playing out the inevitable: Trump

U.S. President Donald Trump asserted on social media that the United States has 'almost total control' of the Strait of Hormuz and that Iran's economy is 'totally collapsing,' following a new round of U.S. airstrikes against Iranian targets. These claims come amid escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran, which have seen retaliatory strikes and increased military activity around the strategically vital waterway. Trump dismissed a report suggesting he sought to negotiate with Iran, claiming he had no interest in reaching an agreement. He also urged the Iranian people to oppose their government. Iran denies U.S. claims of control over Hormuz and warns that blocking its oil exports could disrupt global energy supplies. Recent clashes have led to rising oil prices and deepened the geopolitical standoff.
