Trump Warns Iran Over Hormuz Closure Threats
Donald Trump reacted to Iranian threats to close the Strait of Hormuz, saying in a Fox News interview that if Iran does not make a serious commitment in the negotiations, he has multiple options available. He added, “I hold all the cards,” underscoring his view that the United States has leverage in the talks.
The remarks came as Iran has been threatening to shut the strategic waterway, a move that would carry major consequences for global shipping and energy markets. Trump’s response was presented as a warning to Tehran rather than a detailed policy announcement.
In the same interview, Trump used even harsher language toward Iran, saying, “You will not have a country,” in reference to the stakes he sees if the confrontation escalates. The article gives no indication that he announced any immediate action.
The report is brief and offers no further details about the negotiations, timing, or any next steps beyond Trump’s insistence that Iran must take the talks seriously.
