What actions is Trump taking regarding the ceasefire with Iran?
Donald Trump is spiraling as he tries to break the ceasefire that he purported to enter into when he agreed to all of Iran's terms of surrender. Donald Trump agreed to Iran's 10-point negotiating framework. And now Donald Trump says there must have been a miscommunication because maybe Iran doesn't know English that well. Maybe their negotiators didn't realize what we were saying, because even though Donald Trump posted that I've agreed to Iran's 10 point framework as a suitable place to have these negotiations, I actually don't agree with any of those terms. And I'm going to now claim that Iran agreed to our framework. Now, Iran was clearly prepared for this and they still control the straight of Hormuz.
So they're like, okay, well, you posted Donald Trump that you agreed to our framework. We've made it public and very clear what our negotiating framework is. But if ultimately you don't want to abide by the terms, that's fine. I mean, we control the Strait of Hormuz, and we're not gonna let any tankers through. And that's exactly what's happening right now. Iran's not letting any tankers through. They've let some cargo ships through, but by and large, no tankers have been able to get through the Strait of Hormuz. We're seeing the price of oil surge once again, over $101 per barrel, and that's gonna just keep on rising. But Iran's made it very clear, The new normal, as Iran sees it, is they control the Strait of Hormuz.
They get $2 million per ship. They become a massive regional power in the area, if not a global power. They're expecting full reparations from the United States and Israel for the invasion of Iran. They're also expecting long-term security guarantees for themselves, for Hezbollah. for the Houthis and for Shiite groups in Iraq, because that's part of the stipulation that was in the 10-point negotiating framework. Also, they expect to enrich uranium because that was in the framework. And also, they expect for all sanctions to be lifted against them, both United Nations resolutions against them, sanctions against them, anything. because that's what Trump agreed to. And so I guess Donald Trump's plan is to do what he did his whole life, enter into agreements, then break them and say, you know, I'm not going to follow them.
But the reality is, is you don't have the cards right now, as someone once said. They have the cards in the sense of they control the straight of her moves. And so now Donald Trump's tactics are just putting on social media. There are reports that Iran is charging fees to tankers going through the Hormuz Strait. They better not be, and if they are, they better stop now. Oh, you're gonna post it on social media, and that's gonna do the trick, and when that doesn't work, Donald Trump then threatens NATO and Europe that they better go right now, NATO and Europe, and they better go to the Strait of Hormuz immediately. And if they don't go to the Strait of Hormuz, they're gonna be in big trouble and I don't just want commitments, they better send their ships.
And NATO members and European countries are like, yeah, we're not doing that. We're gonna do negotiations with Iran like ourselves. So like European countries, NATO countries, calling Iran and negotiating with Foreign Minister Araghchi and with the President Pozeshkin and others and M.B. Goluboff and basically just saying, hey, this is how we're going to do bilateral relations. So you have that going on. You have Donald Trump posting weird photos of himself and Dana White in front of the White House while all this is taking place. And then out of nowhere, like literally out of nowhere, Melania Trump holds a press conference today to talk about Epstein and that I'm not involved in Epstein and images of me that are out there between me and Epstein and Ghislaine.
She says those are fake images and she says there needs to be a congressional investigation. We need to hold congressional hearings on Epstein and people need to stop defaming me and And saying bad things about me and Epstein and Ghislaine.
