President Donald Trump said Monday night that developments regarding Iran are 'going great' and that the Strait of Hormuz is completely open, according to a report by N12. The brief on-the-record comment comes amid ongoing US-Iran diplomatic efforts following a series of prior agreements and reopenings of the strategic waterway.
President Donald Trump said Monday evening that 'things are going great' regarding Iran and that the Strait of Hormuz is fully open, according to a report by N12. The brief comment was made to a reporter and offers little elaboration beyond affirming the status of the strategic waterway.
As The Zioneer has reported extensively over recent weeks, the Strait of Hormuz has been a central focus in US-Iran negotiations. Earlier this month, Trump announced a near-60-day ceasefire agreement that would reopen the strait in exchange for sanctions relief. Later statements from the president and Iranian officials indicated that passage still required Iranian coordination, even as oil traffic resumed.
The current statement aligns with Trump's broader optimism on the talks but does not indicate any new concessions or deadlines. Notably, the comment comes from a single source, N12, and the full context of the exchange remains undisclosed.
