"I Can Wipe Out Iran in a Day": Trump Issues Final Warning via Fox News
His mandate is clear: either every ship passes safely, or none will. "We will not let Iran earn money by selling oil to their chosen partners," Trump stated, emphasizing an "all or nothing" policy for the region.
The President compared the upcoming blockade to the previous sanctions on Venezuela but noted it would be significantly larger in scale. Trump also reiterated his threats to dismantle Iran’s civilian energy infrastructure, including power plants and refineries. "I could take out their entire fuel system, every plant, and their power generation—it would be a massive blow," he remarked. These comments signal a potential shift toward total military and economic confrontation to end Iranian influence in global energy markets.
