President Donald Trump announced that during a 60-day ceasefire period, no tariffs or tolls will be imposed on ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz. He stated that any future tolls must be 'imposed by and for the United States of America.' The announcement follows Iran's declaration of closing the waterway over alleged US breaches of commitments and Israeli ceasefire violations. The move aims to de-escalate tensions while preserving US authority over strategic maritime routes.
