Donald Trump told NBC News that the downing of a US fighter jet would not affect any negotiations with Iran, while declining to comment on the search and rescue operation.
– No, not at all. No, this is war. We are at war – said Trump in a short telephone interview.
Trump also issued a vague message about oil in the afternoon, writing on Truth Social: “Keep the oil, anyone?”
In another post earlier on Friday, he suggested the US could “easily” reopen the strategically important Strait of Hormuz, marking a shift in stance after previously insisting other countries were responsible for clearing the waterway.
– With a little more time, we can easily open the Strait of Hormuz, take the oil and make a fortune – Trump wrote on Friday morning.
