Trump’s Threats to Iran
Earlier, Trump threatened Iran again, warning of unleashing «hell» if they do not reopen the strait by Tuesday. «Tuesday will be Power Plant Day and Bridge Day, all in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!» Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social. He recently extended the ultimatum for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz until April 6 at 8:00 pm Washington time (00:00 GMT on April 7). «Open the damn strait, you damn fools, or you will live in hell. YOU WILL SEE! Praise be to Allah,» Trump wrote.
Consequences of the Strait Closure
The closure of the Strait of Hormuz, through which a fifth of the world’s oil passes, has been one of the most destabilizing consequences of the Middle East conflict, which began on February 28 after US and Israeli airstrikes on Tehran. Trump vowed in a national address on Wednesday to hit the country «hard» in the next two to three weeks.
