US President Trump Warns of Potential Iran Oil Embargo

US President Donald Trump has instructed his aides to prepare for a potential extended blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, according to reports. The news comes as oil prices have risen above $107 following the announcement.

A leaked memo reportedly shows that Trump’s advisors are being told to expect a prolonged blockade, which could have significant implications for global energy markets and trade routes.

The US has been involved in tensions with Iran over its nuclear program and regional influence. In recent days, there have been reports of increased military activity in the region.

Iran has responded to Trump’s comments, dismissing his claims of “collapse” as “propaganda.” The country’s leaders have also urged caution and restraint from all parties involved.

The situation remains fluid, with ongoing developments and updates expected in the coming hours.
