US President Donald Trump has made a statement to various countries, including the UK, advising them to “go get their own oil” from the Strait of Hormuz. This was reported by multiple news sources.

According to reports, Trump also told his aides that he is willing to end the war in the region without reopening the Strait of Hormuz, which is a critical shipping lane for oil and other goods.

Additionally, Trump has been quoted as saying that he will not reopen the Strait if it means continuing the conflict with Iran. This statement was reported by several news outlets.

The US President’s comments come amid high fuel prices in some countries, including the UK. Trump’s advice to these nations is to find alternative sources of oil.

Iran has also taken action, hitting an oil tanker off the coast of Dubai. The incident occurred on a ship that was carrying oil from Iran to the UAE.

These events are unfolding in the Middle East and have been reported by various news organizations.
