TOUS 4641 Trump menace de faire du detroit d Ormuz un territoire americain

Donald Trump has stated that after "defeating" Iran, the United States will soon declare the Strait of Hormuz as "US territory." The American president already asserts that Washington controls access to the strait, even though maritime traffic there is severely disrupted. This declaration, the legal implications of which remain uncertain, further exacerbates tensions with Tehran. Iran categorically rejects any American claim to this strategic waterway, essential for global oil transport.
