Trump releases map showing Strait of Hormuz as US territory

US President Donald Trump has published an image depicting the Strait of Hormuz as "new US territory", bringing back attention to his recent statements about this strategic waterway.

Trump shared a map of the Strait of Hormuz on social media, which was labeled "New US Territory." The publication comes days after the US president said Washington could declare the strait US territory.

 
Speaking on August 14, Trump claimed that the US Navy was implementing a complete blockade of Hormuz and declared that, after defeating Iran, the US would take control of this strategic area.

Trump has also stated that the United States has "complete control" over the Strait of Hormuz and that this control can be maintained in the future.

On the other hand, Iranian authorities have reiterated that the strait will not be reopened unless the US stops its naval intervention and blockade, while also demanding respect for the terms of the agreement reached between Tehran and Washington.

Andi Bushati: Why stones and Molotov cocktails became inevitable

This youth revolt has had a great merit. It made known to the general public the most criminal side of this regime that had until now been preserved in the most secretive recesses. If the extremely peaceful revolution of the flamingos showed us that this government was no longer popular, its radical epilogue, with stones and Molotov cocktails, is serving to bring to light that the autocrat is capable of using any means to stay in power.
