Scott Basset, the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, wrote in a post on the social media platform X: "It's very hard for the mice in the sewer to understand what's happening in the outside world. A little light for the leaders of Iran who are truly sitting in the dark:

  1. The United States has complete control over the Strait of Hormuz.

  2. [In Iran] there is a shortage of foreign currency, meaning U.S. dollars.

  3. [In Iran] food and gasoline rationing is in place.

  4. The entire international community is against Iran.

  5. The blockade of the Strait of Hormuz will continue until freedom of navigation is restored as it was before February 27."

The U.S. Treasury Department also issued a statement today warning that any individual or company, whether American or foreign, that pays "fees" to Iran for passage through the Strait of Hormuz is at risk of violating U.S. sanctions against Iran.
