US President Donald Trump revealed Thursday what he previously described as a "present" from Iran as the passage of multiple oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, framing it as a sign of progress in ongoing negotiations.

Axar.az informs, citing Fox news, Trump had hinted a day earlier that Iran had offered a significant gesture but declined to provide details at the time.

"They said to show you the fact that we’re real and solid and we’re there — we’re going to let you have eight boats of oil," Trump said during a Cabinet meeting Thursday, adding that the number of tankers ultimately reached ten. "I said, well, I guess we’re dealing with the right people."
