BREAKING: Iran has directly rejected Donald Trump's claim that he will declare the Strait of Hormuz as U.S. territory, stating that "the Strait of Hormuz cannot be seized by tweet, nor by aircraft carrier, nor by issuing an order, nor by an election speech."

Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi added: "Once and for all, accept the reality: up to this point, you have suffered strategic and heavy defeats; the Strait of Hormuz has been Iranian, is Iranian, and will remain Iranian."

He emphasized that the Strait "will only be closed and opened under Iran's command," and warned that "as long as you do not accept the reality of defeat and cease your fanciful delusions, Iran will continue to enforce the blockade."

The statement comes after Trump claimed that after Iran's defeat, he would soon declare the Strait of Hormuz as U.S. territory.
