Hegseth Claims Strait Of Hormuz 'Is Open' And Doesn't 'Worry' About It
"In a particularly unhinged appearance, the former Fox News host said the strait was open but that Iran kept attacking shipping, and there was no need to worry about it.
WASHINGTON — Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth said Friday that the Strait of Hormuz, where shipping traffic has essentially been stopped since the start of the war on Iran, is actually “open” and that military leaders “don’t need to worry about it.”
“The only thing prohibiting transit in the straits right now is Iran shooting at shipping. It is open for transit should Iran not do that,” the former Fox News weekend host told reporters at a Pentagon briefing."
