"US Expansionist Plans Spark International Concern: In a provocative statement, President Trump has hinted at a dramatic shift in US foreign policy, suggesting that he will soon declare the strategic Strait of Hormuz a US territory once Iran is defeated. The Strait, a crucial waterway connecting the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman, has long been a focal point of tensions between the US, Iran, and other regional powers. By asserting US control over the Strait, Trump would be effectively redrawing the map of the Middle East and potentially sparking a new era of conflict in the region. The move would also raise questions about the implications for international law and the sovereignty of neighboring countries, including Iraq, Oman, and the UAE."
US President Trump says that 'pretty soon' he will declare the Strait of Hormuz a US territory once Iran is defeated.
