President Donald Trump believes that the Strait of Hormuz may soon lose its significance in the global market due to the development of new pipelines and overland routes through the Middle East. Speaking to journalists in the Oval Office, Trump stated that alternatives to the Strait of Hormuz are emerging. He highlighted ongoing construction of pipelines in the region and the commencement of large-scale oil transportation by trucks across Syrian territory.
Trump expressed skepticism about Iran's capacity for progress, suggesting that without improvement, Iran will eventually become dependent on the Strait of Hormuz less than it currently is. He characterized the conflict between the US and Iran as a military conflict rather than a war, stating that for the United States, it is a relatively minor issue.
Trump also claimed that the United States has managed to bring Iran under control, similar to their previous handling of Venezuela. It is worth noting that this perspective on the Strait of Hormuz's future was previously reported by a news outlet.
