Trump says US will help 'with traffic buildup' in Hormuz Strait

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that the United States will help with the traffic buildup in the Strait of Hormuz, hours after Washington and Tehran agreed to a two-week ceasefire.

"The United States of America will be helping with the traffic buildup in the Strait of Hormuz. There will be lots of positive action! Big money will be made. Iran can start the reconstruction process," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
