April 8 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday the United States will help with the traffic buildup in the Strait of Hormuz.
“We’ll be loading up with supplies of all kinds, and just ‘hangin’ around’ in order to make sure that everything goes well,” Trump said.
“There will be lots of positive action! Big money will be made. Iran can start the reconstruction process,” he also said.
Trump on Tuesday agreed to a two-week ceasefire with Iran less than two hours before his deadline for Tehran to reopen the strait or face attacks on its civilian infrastructure.
