Washington (HRNW)- US President Donald Trump has taken an important decision to keep the Strait of Hormuz open. The US President says that the US Navy will be deployed in the Strait of Hormuz with commercial ships if necessary.
President Trump said that in view of the increasing tension in the region, full protection will be provided to commercial ships, especially oil tankers. He said that US financial institutions will help insure the ships and all commercial ships will be provided with insurance and security guarantees.
According to the US President, the main purpose of this move is to secure global trade activities and energy supplies during the ongoing tension in the Gulf. The US stands that the Strait of Hormuz is an important passage for global trade, which will not be allowed to be unsafe under any circumstances.
US officials say that this decision has been made to ensure the continuity of international trade and the supply of oil to the global market, while the situation in the region is being closely monitored.
