Gate News reports that on March 10, according to CNN, a source familiar with Iran’s leadership strategy revealed that Iran is planning to impose a “security tax” on oil tankers and commercial ships within the Persian Gulf that are allied with the United States. The source insisted that the Strait of Hormuz is “closed,” even though U.S. President Trump claims it is open. The source stated, “We control the ‘trigger’ for global oil prices, and for a long time, the U.S. will have to wait for our actions to regulate oil prices. Energy prices have become unstable, and we will continue to fight until Trump admits defeat.”
