EXCERPT:
President Donald Trump says that there are no more mines in the Strait of Hormuz, as he warns that any “new mines” will result in a military response.
Both the U.S. and the Islamic Republic of Iran have said they are in charge of the strait, which has global significance for cargo transportation, but the U.S. currently has the upper hand by a wide margin, according to CNN.
The comments come as the president said earlier this month that there no longer talks occurring between the U.S. and the Islamic Republic, as the war now shifts to an economic focus.
Trump says all mines have been removed or have been detonated in the Strait of Hormuz.
He says Iran has been notified that “any ship or boat placing new mines will be immediately and systematically destroyed.” pic.twitter.com/xrtHYUN3WA
