US VP Vance Warns Iran Over Strait of Hormuz as Trump Declares MOU Over

U.S. Vice President JD Vance stated on Wednesday that President Donald Trump "still retains many options" in dealing with Iran. 

He emphasized that the Strait of Hormuz will remain open, and the United States will continue to respond forcefully if Tehran resumes targeting ships.

Vance noted that Trump made it clear that the Strait of Hormuz "will remain open, which means oil and gas will continue to flow," stressing that this passage represents a vital artery through which a massive portion of the world's energy supplies travels.

He added that "Iran faces two options: either abide by the agreement, or face what happened to them last night," affirming that the United States will sustain its operations "until they open that waterway and stop targeting vessels."

Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Wednesday that he believes the memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed with Iran has ended, adding that he refuses to deal with "the Iranians" because they are "sick."
