Trump says he plans to make Strait of Hormuz a US territory

U.S. President Donald Trump has hinted at a plan to declare the Strait of Hormuz a U.S. territory.

Axar.az reports, citing NBC News, that Trump made the remarks during a speech on New York's Long Island.

"After we finish defeating Iran, which is being very badly defeated — pretty soon, I'll be declaring the Hormuz Strait a territory of the United States," he told a crowd of law enforcement officers.

"Essentially, that's what it is. We have the blockade. No ships get through unless we want them to," he added.
