  "account": "President Donald Trump has declared the Strait of Hormuz a new U.S. territory, according to a post on his Truth Social social media platform. The president tweeted a map of the strategic waterway, separating the Persian Gulf from the Gulf of Oman, with the caption \"NEW territory of United States\" and a blue, red, and white banner with stars.\n\nTrump stated that after defeating Iran, he would officially declare the Strait of Hormuz as U.S. territory, following the expiration of a 60-day deadline from the June ceasefire agreement signed with Iran. This comes after Trump's recent call to leave the Strait of Hormuz to the United States, arguing that American airstrikes targeting Iran in February had significantly weakened Iran's military capabilities. Iran has dismissed these claims.",
