President Donald Trump has reaffirmed that the U.S. naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz will remain in place until a comprehensive agreement with Iran is finalized. His latest comments, posted on social media, state that "When the agreement is signed, the blockade ends." This directly ties the lifting of the blockade to the signing of a final deal, a condition he has stated previously. The statement comes amid ongoing negotiations and contradictory public claims from both sides about the status and terms of a potential agreement.
