Iran defied Trump and denied that the US controls the Strait of Hormuz: "It cannot be conquered with a tweet or aircraft carriers."

On Saturday, the Iranian regime rejected recent statements made by United States President Donald Trump regarding the potential declaration of the Strait of Ormuz as US territory. Tehran responded by stating that the strategic maritime enclave cannot be controlled or conquered.

According to the reports, Iranian authorities dismissed the idea that American military assets or social media declarations could secure dominion over the strait. The remarks serve as a direct challenge to Washington's assertions of control over the vital shipping route.
