US President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Iran regarding the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial waterway for global oil supply. He accused Iran of breaching a two-week ceasefire agreement by suggesting tolls on ships passing through, stating that only 10 vessels have transited since the ceasefire began. Trump's social media posts expressed frustration over Iran's management of the strait, emphasizing that oil shipping operations would resume soon, 'with or without' Iran's cooperation. This warning comes amid rising tensions, as Iran's suggestion to impose fees has further complicated the situation. Trump's tone has notably shifted from previous optimism about a potential peace deal with Iran to a more aggressive stance, indicating that failing to reach an agreement could lead to significant consequences. Meanwhile, US officials, including Vice President JD Vance, are scheduled to hold discussions with Iranian representatives in Pakistan, aiming for a resolution that could stabilize the region.
