Get your own oil from Hormuz – Trump to countries facing blockade

Donald Trump warns Iran

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, has told countries struggling with fuel shortages due to disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz to take matters into their own hands.

Trump made the remarks via his official social media platform the Truth media, suggesting that nations affected by the blockade should either buy oil from the United States or secure it themselves.

According to him, “All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved… I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty.”

He added a more forceful option, saying, “Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT.”

Trump stressed that the United States would no longer provide assistance, declaring, “You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us.”

He also claimed that Iran’s capabilities had been significantly weakened, stating, “Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done.”

Trump concluded his remarks with a blunt message: “Go get your own oil!”
