According to AFP reports, Trump published a series of posts on social media, sparking external concerns that the ceasefire is on the brink of collapse. Trump also warned Iran not to collect tolls from oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump posted on his own social media platform, "Truth Social": "Iran is doing a very bad job, some would say disgraceful, in letting oil pass through the Strait of Hormuz. This is NOT the deal we made!"
Trump had written earlier: "Reports suggest Iran is charging oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz. They better not do this, and if they are, they better stop immediately."
In another post slamming the media's critical editorials regarding the ceasefire agreement, he stated: "Everyone will see oil start to flow, with or without Iran's help."
Lloyd's List, the global shipping authority, estimates that about 800 ships have been stranded in the Persian Gulf since the conflict broke out in late February.
After previously threatening to destroy Iran's entire civilization, Trump announced a two-week ceasefire with Iran on the 7th of this month, with both sides stating the Strait of Hormuz would reopen.
