On May 11, local time Monday morning, Trump stated that he watched CBS News’ ‘60 Minutes’ interview with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, calling the program ‘quite good,’ but he disagreed with Netanyahu’s assertion that ‘no one can fully foresee Iran blocking the Strait of Hormuz.’ Trump responded, ‘I can foresee it. I know they will close the strait. It’s their only weapon. Now it’s not much of a weapon, but it is still their only weapon.’ He also mentioned that if it weren’t for previously providing assistance to certain countries at their request, the U.S. could have kept the strait open through ‘Freedom Plan’ operations. He added that if necessary, the U.S. could restart similar operations, even taking ‘stronger measures.’
