WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) – US President Donald Trump does not see enough support among his own population for his oil ambitions in Iran. “Unfortunately, the American people want us to come home,” he said at an Easter event on the White House grounds. If he had his way, they would take over the oil, keep the oil and make a lot of money. But he also wants to make people in his own country happy.
During the Iran War that began at the end of February, Trump repeatedly put forward the idea that the USA could take over Iran’s oil. For such a step, the US military would probably have to take over the Iranian island of Kharg in the Persian Gulf, through which around 90 percent of the country’s oil exports are processed./rin/DP/he
