Iran’s Foreign Ministry has described the latest economic sanctions imposed by the United States on Tehran as a “declaration of war” against all nations. Iran said the sanctions amount to an attempt by Washington to impose its authority beyond its borders on independent UN member states.
Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump said he considers the Strait of Hormuz to be American territory “right now”, adding that Iran would like to reach an agreement but is not yet prepared to accept what he considers the right deal.
