US President Donald Trump stated that Iran has informed Washington that it will not demand any fees, insurance premiums, or other payments from ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz. He wrote about this on his "Truth Social" account.
Trump declared that if Tehran violates this commitment, the ongoing negotiations between the parties will immediately cease.
Iran has informed the United States that, despite fake media reports claiming otherwise, it is not demanding or receiving any fees, insurance premiums, or other payments from ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz. If this information proves to be untrue, talks will immediately stop.
The politician also clarified claims regarding the US providing any financial funds to Iran. He emphasized that Washington has not paid any money to Iran or allowed the free use of any funds.
The US has not given any money to Iran. We will direct a portion of their funds, under our full control, towards purchases from American farmers and ranchers for corn, wheat, soybeans, and other products.
Donald Trump added that this step is related to Iran's severe need for food, and the supply will only be carried out from the United States.
There is a serious need for food in Iran, and we will purchase these products for them only from the United States.
