Trump Announced The Seizure Of 22 Iranian Oil Tankers
Donald Trump

According to him, Washington received "millions of barrels of oil."

The U.S. military has seized 22 Iranian oil tankers, U.S. President Donald Trump announced.

According to him, Washington has obtained “millions of barrels of oil.”

“Do you know that we took millions of barrels of oil? <...> Recently, at night, we took 22 ships. Late at night, under cover of darkness. Because they [in that area] had no radar—we bombed it <...> That’s why oil is $85 a barrel,” he said during a briefing in the Oval Office. The broadcast was posted on the White House YouTube channel.

This was his response to a reporter’s remark that inflation in the U.S. had exceeded 4% for the first time in three years.
