President Donald Trump has once again made strong statements regarding Iran, after the United States (US) officially imposed a naval blockade on all maritime activities of the country on Monday (13/04) local time.


This move immediately triggered global tensions, especially in strategic areas such as the Strait of Hormuz, which has long been a vital route for oil distribution and international trade.
In his statement, Trump emphasized that the US will not allow Iran to pressure the world economically, while claiming that some parties from Iran have begun opening communication for a new agreement.
"Basically, we cannot allow one country to pressure the world for its own interests. However, now, there are signals from their side that they want to seek an agreement," Trump said.
He mentioned that "the right people" from Iran have contacted his side, indicating a desire to dialogue despite the still tense geopolitical situation.
"If they continue to refuse regarding nuclear weapons, then there will be no agreement. I am quite confident they will change their minds; if not, this conversation is over," he added.
Amid this situation, the global market also reacted, including the crypto sector. Bitcoin (BTC) price was recorded to strengthen to around US$74,200 or increased by approximately 4.57% in the last 24 hours.
