Trump prévient qu'il y aura d'importantes conséquences militaires si l'Iran mine le détroit d'Ormuz
"If for any reason mines have been laid and are not removed immediately, the military consequences for Iran will be unprecedented," the US president warned in a message posted on his Truth Social platform, even though he has not yet received any evidence that Iran has mined the strait.
"If, on the other hand, they remove what has been put in place, it will be a giant step in the right direction!", he also added.
The United States could use the same missiles it previously used to blow up ships suspected of drug trafficking in the Caribbean, in order to "permanently eliminate" any mine-laying vessels in the Gulf Strait, Mr. Trump added.
"They will be dealt with swiftly and violently. BEWARE!", he wrote.
His message follows a report by CNN, citing anonymous sources close to US intelligence services, that Iran has indeed begun laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz, through which nearly a fifth of the world's oil production passes and where traffic is virtually at a standstill.
