President Donald Trump has warned that the United States may impose tolls on the Strait of Hormuz if a final agreement with Iran is not reached within 60 days. Speaking during a weekend retreat at Camp David, the President referenced a preliminary deal aimed at ending hostilities. This initial agreement currently allows for toll-free passage through the critical waterway for a 60-day period. Trump emphasized that the implementation of these charges would be a consequence of failing to finalize the diplomatic process. The announcement, reported by the Associated Press, highlights the strategic importance of the strait for global shipping. The U.S. administration is using this economic leverage to pressure Iran into a definitive settlement. This move signals a potential escalation in maritime restrictions if negotiations stall.
