Trump Warns Iran Not to Close Strait of Hormuz Overnight, Says U.S. Could Take 20% of Oil

According to Fox News, President Trump warned Iran during a late-night phone call on June 20 not to close the Strait of Hormuz, stating that the country would "cease to exist" if it did so. Trump said the U.S. could serve as a "guardian angel" of the strategic waterway and potentially seize 20% of its oil, or alternatively impose transit fees if Iran fails to reach an agreement. "We could blow them to smithereens. If they don't make a deal, we'll collect a toll," Trump told Fox News.
