Trump’s Repeated Admission of His Motive to Steal Iran’s Oil

U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday once again admitted to his plan to seize Iran’s oil.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Trump, in a post on Truth Social, spoke of seizing Iran's oil. He wrote in this regard, “With a little more time, we can easily open the Strait of Hormuz, take the oil, and make a lot of money. This will be an 'oil gusher' for the world.”

The U.S. government had previously, after the arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, stolen tens of millions of barrels of that country’s oil. Trump speaks of opening the Strait of Hormuz, while experts have repeatedly emphasized that, without Iran's consent and an end to the hostilities, the safe passage of ships through this waterway will not be possible
