Trump says no Iran talks planned, teases action in Hormuz Strait

Reported · Written up by our desk · Trade & Tariffs

CNBC World reports that President Donald Trump said no talks with Iran are scheduled, while also hinting at possible action related to the Hormuz Strait.

The outlet notes Trump’s claim that the United States controls the waterway, despite ongoing attacks on vessels that attempt to transit and despite few ships making the crossing.

CNBC World also highlights the contradiction between Trump’s statement and the continued risk to transiting shipping in the strait.
