Former U.S. President Donald Trump has claimed on his social media network that oil transit through the Strait of Hormuz has surpassed even pre-war levels. However, analysts say the source of this information is unclear.
According to U.S. media, Trump is making this claim as the country prepares for midterm elections. He often attributes any disruption or reduction in oil transit to Iran, using it as a political tool.
This is not the first time Trump has made such assertions. He previously stated that the U.S. has full control of the Strait of Hormuz and that Iran would not be able to export its oil.
According to analysts, Trump's statements come as high oil prices have become a domestic and political problem for him in the United States.
With the November 3rd midterm elections approaching, the issue of oil prices has become a politically vulnerable topic for Trump and the Republican Party. High gasoline prices put pressure on the budgets of American families and could influence election outcomes.
Analysts believe that for Americans, high oil prices are not just a foreign policy issue but a domestic one that directly impacts people's lives and the country's political situation. Trump's statements are seen as an attempt to allay these concerns.
