On the 13th, US President Trump posted on social media that he would resume a naval blockade of Iranian vessels and trading partners entering and exiting Iran over the Strait of Hormuz. Furthermore, he insisted that the United States impose a 20% compensation on all transit cargo as necessary to ensure the safety of the Strait of Hormuz, and expressed the idea that each country should bear the cost in return for the United States being responsible for the safety of navigation.
