Trump Claims Iran Economy Hit Hard by Ongoing Naval Blockade

US President Donald Trump said during an Oval Office address that Iran is conducting “absolutely no business” under the current US naval blockade, while confirming that no active fighting is taking place. He stated that the blockade remains fully enforced, targeting maritime activity linked to Iranian ports.

The blockade was introduced after recent diplomatic efforts failed to produce an agreement.
