Trump Aide Claims Progress on Secure Passage Through Strait of Hormuz

A senior official in the Trump administration stated on Saturday that efforts are underway to develop a plan ensuring the safe passage of vessels through the Strait of Hormuz, asserting that Iran has indicated it will not impose transit fees.

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, a report from Al Jazeera, citing Mehr News Agency, indicates that JD Vance, the Vice President of the United States under the Trump administration, made a statement today aiming to mitigate public pressure regarding the current economic challenges, particularly food and fuel price increases, which some attribute to costly actions against Iran. Vance claimed, “Tehran informed us that it would allow maximum oil transit through the Strait of Hormuz, but until this is proven, we will not trust it!”

The US Vice President further elaborated on his assertions, stating, “The Iranians are suffering and want to end this situation. Iran has informed us that it will not impose any transit fees for the Strait of Hormuz! We are in the midst of this game and are utilizing diplomatic, economic, and military tools to achieve the best outcome for our people.”

JD Vance then asserted, “We are working on a plan for the safe passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz, and this plan includes Iran’s commitment not to open fire.”

Disregarding the fact that the strategic Strait of Hormuz was secure and frequently used prior to the American-Zionist aggression on Iranian territory, he claimed, “The main problem in the Hormuz [Strait] is Iran’s mining at the beginning of the war, and we are trying to create a secure navigation system!”
