U.S. President Donald Trump said he would not allow Iran to impose charges tied to transit through the Strait of Hormuz, according to an Odaily newsflash citing Jin10. Trump made the remarks when asked whether Iran would be willing to “restore complete freedom of navigation” in the waterway. He said the strait “has to be” open to free navigation and rejected the idea of Iran collecting fees.
Trump added that if anyone were to charge, “it would be us charging,” saying the United States is the side with “complete control.” He also said, “We have something called a blockade,” and added that charging had not been under discussion. He closed the point by saying there would be no charges. The item was published by Odaily as a 7x24 newsflash and attributed to Jin10.
