On March 30, when asked about Iran's plans to charge fees in the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. President Trump stated, "I need to confirm whether this is true, but the U.S. can very quickly terminate this action. We can complete this task in two minutes. We can do it so quickly that you will feel dizzy." He mentioned that Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE, and Bahrain are retaliating against Iran. "I was very surprised by their attacks. But once attacked, their retaliation has been very effective. We have very strong communication, but all the people from these countries say they have been fighting all along." (Al Jazeera)
