Former US Ambassador to Denmark talks US Iran stand off as Trump shifts strategy

The United States is in a standoff with Iran over the Strait of Hormuz as President Donald Trump shifts strategy in what was described as a major pivot. Trump scrapped an earlier plan for a 20% fee on cargo transiting the strait and instead announced he is pursuing major trade and investment deals with Gulf states. He also declared a full blockade on Iranian ports and shipping while keeping the waterway open to everyone else. _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: WOAI on Instagram:   / news4sa   WOAI on Facebook:   / news4sa   WOAI on Twitter:   / news4sa   Subscribe to WOAI on YouTube:    / @woaivideo   Daily News Playlist:    • Playlist   For more information, visit https://news4sanantonio.com/ Have a news tip?
