JUST IN: 🇺🇸 President Trump says the Strait of Hormuz is "completely controlled" by the United States.

Trump dismissed Iran's claim that it would "powerfully" operate the Strait of Hormuz as "usual blather," insisting it's already under full US Navy control via its blockade — which he called "The United States Wall of Steel." He said nothing gets through Iran unless the US allows it, and the blockade stays "unless a Deal, or Total Surrender, is accomplished." This came after Iran denied his claim that reopening talks were underway, saying it was instead negotiating a temporary safe shipping route with Oman.
