econews. According to a report by the Iran Economic News Agency, the White House spokesperson, in an interview with Fox News, reiterated the repetitive claims made by the United States regarding the Strait of Hormuz.
According to the report, in an attempt to downplay the repercussions of the United States’ war of aggression against Iran, the spokesperson claimed that the Strait of Hormuz remains open.
The American official further asserted: “Iran is in an exceedingly weak position, and the Secretary of the Treasury continues to employ every economic instrument against it. Operation ‘Epic Fury’ has achieved significant success in undermining the military capabilities of the Iranian regime!”
The White House spokesperson—representing a nation that possesses the world’s largest nuclear arsenal—while disregarding the commitments of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), claimed: “The President’s primary objective has been, and remains, to ensure that Iran does not acquire nuclear weapons!”
Furthermore, without acknowledging the dire consequences of the war of aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran for the United States and its allies, she asserted: “The naval blockade of Iran remains in place and has been highly successful; we effectively control the Strait of Hormuz!”
The White House spokesperson also reiterated hollow threats against Tehran, stating: “Trump continues to keep all options on the table regarding Iran. We have yet to witness any genuine seriousness from Iran concerning negotiations.”
