@twt_unleashed: Trump Declares the Strait of Hormuz “American Territory” President Trump says the Strait of Hormuz is now “American territory,” putting a provocative new label on one of the world’s most important shipping routes. But legally, the picture is very different. The roughly 21-mile-wide chokepoint between Iran and Oman is considered an international strait where foreign vessels have transit passage rights. No country has exclusive ownership of the entire waterway. With the U.S. enforcing a naval blockade and Iran asserting its own authority, the fight is increasingly about more than ships and oil. It is about who actually controls the Strait. Can any country claim Hormuz as its own? #straitofhormuz #donaldtrump #iran #worldnews #fyp
