Trump said the United States defeated Iran and would help maintain security in the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump said today in a post: "The United States has defeated and completely destroyed Iran, whether militarily, economically, or in any other aspect. However, all countries that import oil through the Strait of Hormuz must maintain the security of this passage, and we will provide strong assistance! The United States will also coordinate with these countries to ensure everything is quickly, smoothly, and properly carried out. This was originally a team effort, and it will certainly be so now - this will unite the world, leading towards harmony, safety, and lasting peace! President Donald J. Trump"

Comment: The United States has packaged the tensions it created into a "shared global responsibility," which essentially involves pulling all oil-dependent countries into a lineup, subjecting them to pressure and sacrifice. Those who do not participate are deemed as "not maintaining peace."
