The Iranian government has officially declared the Strait of Hormuz open for international maritime traffic, yet commercial vessel activity remains notably low. This vital waterway, essential for global oil and gas shipments, is currently seeing a significant decrease in transit as shipping companies weigh the risks associated with regional instability. While Tehran maintains that the passage is secure, the lack of traffic highlights ongoing concerns regarding security and the potential for disruptions in one of the world’s most critical energy corridors.

Hi😐 I am thai🇹🇭. I think that The terrorists🇺🇲 will never permanently stop attacking Iran🇮🇷. They want to seize Iran's oil resources so that every country has to use the US dollar for oil transactions. This would allow the USA to continue printing dollar bills💵 indefinitely. If they withdraw their troops from the Middle East, the petrodollar system will collapse, and the USA will go bankrupt. They will certainly not be able to pay their $40 trillion debt. There is only one option: WAR!!!🚨. Eventually, they will clash with Russia🇷🇺 and China🇨🇳, and negotiations will only be successful after WW3(nuclear war) end.
Like Iran has a bloody say in anything 😂
Did he say swimingly ?
How do you know, with any element of truth, which we know Iran has a perverted view of, what Iran say and think. They denied the fact that talks were taking place, when we all know it was indeed the case. News??? I do not think so. Especially from the BBC.
Propaganda being promoted by the news channels. Listen to the directed questions and the tone of the voice. They have already capitulated. Sad. Very sad.
If Iranian regime stays in power with their underground missile cities and their evil plans to eradicate Israel and turn the world into an Islamic state then people will realise what Trump was trying to accomplish. We Iranians know how evil barbaric and brutal the regime really is
Give that man a FIFA peace prize baby!
It's closed. Trump manipulation of the market again!
Nato is a scam
just imagine if putin said this
Trump has BALLS OF STEEL. 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
