U.S. President Donald Trump stated on social media today that the U.S. will help resolve shipping congestion in the Strait of Hormuz, adding that many positive actions would be taken and vast wealth would be created. Trump said Iran could begin a rebuilding process and that the U.S. would maintain a presence in the region to transport goods and ensure smooth operations, claiming this would lead to a "golden age for the Middle East." Meanwhile, U.S. media reported yesterday that Iran and Oman would collect tolls for passage through the strait, though Iranian authorities have not officially confirmed this.
