According to a report by The Times Of Israel on April 22, 2026, US President Donald Trump has claimed that Iran is experiencing severe financial pressure amid tensions linked to the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most important oil shipping routes.
He suggested that the country’s economy is weakening significantly as international restrictions continue to affect its trade and access to revenue. Trump argued that these conditions have left Tehran struggling to maintain economic stability, with limited financial resources available to sustain its internal needs.
He also pointed to growing pressure surrounding the strategic waterway, stating that Iran wants the Strait of Hormuz reopened as soon as possible. According to him, the situation reflects broader economic distress within the Islamic Republic, which he described as being under serious financial strain due to external pressure and sanctions-related challenges.
Trump made the remarks on Truth Social, where he wrote: “Iran is collapsing financially! They want the Strait of Hormuz opened immediately,” He further claimed that the Iranian government supported the idea of closing the strait in order to “save face” in response to the US blockade of Iranian ports.
In an earlier post, Trump reiterated his position that Iran’s actions are driven by economic desperation, adding that the country is “starving for cash.” His comments come amid ongoing geopolitical tensions in the region, particularly around maritime security and the flow of energy exports through the Strait of Hormuz, which remains a critical route for global oil shipments.
