US President Donald Trump said he has 'all the time in the world' to resolve the conflict with Iran. Trump ordered the US military to 'shoot and kill any boat' laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz with 'no hesitation'. The conflict has been ongoing for eight weeks, with Trump claiming that the US has hit about 75% of its targets in Iran. Iran is reportedly running out of oil storage space due to the US blockade, with Trump stating that this will force them to negotiate. Iran has pulled out a 30-year-old empty supertanker to store oil, but its capacity is expected to only buy them a few more days. Former national security adviser John Bolton criticized Trump's strategy, saying that the ceasefire is 'incoherent' and that the US should demonstrate military dominance over the Strait of Hormuz.
