Tankers Exit Strait of Hormuz11 Jun 2026 10:58
we keep seeing articles in the press and tweets from trump like this, as if we should celebrate that a few ships sneaked through the straight and all is good and fine with the world. they seem to fail to mention that it is a minuscule number compared to numbers before the war and also, i wonder how many of those sailors and ship owners will be prepared to sail back through the straight of go get another cargo ....... hmmmmm

last month, i directed our great u.s. military to execute a secret mission to support oil tankers and other commercial ships through the strait of hormuz. today, i am pleased to announce that this effort has resulted in more than 100 million barrels of oil making its way through the strait, and into the open market. more than 200 commercial ships have safely traveled through the strait. this wildly successful effort is because the united states of america controls the strait of hormuz — not iran. their military is defeated, and their economy is lost. it’s over for iran! thank you for your attention to this matter. president donald j. trump
