President Donald Trump said Tuesday that Iran admitted its country is crumbling following various American bombing campaigns and a U.S. naval blockade of ships going to and from the country via the Strait of Hormuz.
“Iran has just informed us that they are in a ‘State of Collapse.’ They want us to ‘Open the Hormuz Strait,’ as soon as possible, as they try to figure out their leadership situation (Which I believe they will be able to do!),”Trump wroteon Truth Social.
“Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP.”

This news comes just one week after Trumpcalled offan attack against Iran to extend a ceasefire in an effort to give the Iranian government more time to meet U.S. demands.
“Based on the fact that the Government of Iran is seriously fractured, not unexpectedly so and, upon the request of Field Marshal Asim Munir, and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, of Pakistan, we have been asked to hold our Attack on the Country of Iran until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal,” the commander in chief wrote at the time.
It also comes just one day afternews brokeabout a deal that could end the war, but the potential agreement would still leave questions about Iran’s uranium enrichment and desire to develop a nuclear weapon.
The deal centers on reopening the Strait of Hormuz after it was originally deemed “open” by Iran earlier this month, then immediately “closed.”
After Iranfired uponand seized ships that were within the strait, Trumppulled the plugon any potential peace deal. He also ordered Iranian ships to be seized and strengthened the U.S. naval blockade.
“I’ve told my people a little while ago they were getting ready to leave, and I said, ‘Nope, you’re not making an 18 hour flight to go there. We have all the cards. They can call us anytime they want,’” Trump said Saturday.
