2:05Now PlayingPresident Trump announced that the US will begin a sweeping blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, vowing to fight back against Iran’s “WORLD EXTORTION” and ensure that no one paying tolls to the regime will get through the critical oil chokepoint.
Trump claimed that the negotiations with Iran that concluded Saturday without a deal “went well,” but faulted the Islamic Republic for refusing to budge on its nuclear program, which he described as “the only point that really mattered."
