Iran’s Khatam Al-Anbiyaa Central Command:
‘The false claims of by United States regarding the normal passage of vessels through the Strait of Hormuz, which show the desperation and helplessness of the U.S. military, are nothing more than lies and falsehoods.
We announce that the Strait of Hormuz remains, as in the past, under the complete supervision and control of the Islamic Republic of Iran, and no commercial ship or tanker without the permission and guidance of the powerful Iranian Armed Forces has had and will have the possibility of safely transiting this strait.
America is constantly seeking evil and insecurity in the region, and its false and baseless threats, in the face of the all-encompassing preparations of the heroic warriors of Islam in the Armed Forces will result in nothing but further misery and helplessness for them.
The glorious Armed Forces of Islamic Iran are monitoring all movements of the American-Zionist enemy in the region, and under the wise and intelligent command of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief, His Holiness Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, they have not and will not have the slightest hesitation in realizing the rights of the nation, national sovereignty, and defending the ideals of the Islamic Revolution and our beloved country of Iran.
And we will respond to any threat, of any kind and at any level, with an even more crushing and severe response than before.’

Trump says he will soon declare the Strait of Hormuz a US territory
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said he plans to soon declare the Strait of Hormuz "a territory of the United States" as he once again asserted control of the critical waterway amid the war in Iran and touted the success of an American naval blockade of Iranian ports.
"After we finish defeating Iran, which is being very badly defeated, pretty soon I'll be declaring the Hormuz Strait a territory of the United States," Trump said in an Aug. 14 speech in New York. "Essentially that's what we have. The blockade ‒ no ships get through."
Trump's comments marked his latest escalation in rhetoric over the Strait of Hormuz, which he has claimed the United States has taken over and blocked Iranian ships from accessing. Trump has said the blockade of the strait, an international waterway that Iran relies on to transport oil shipments, has wrecked Tehran's economy.
But Iran has rejected Trump's characterization of the strait, asserting it is under the "complete management and control" of Iran and that no commercial ships can go through without Iran's permission.

i did not say i expect a blank page... only that i think a blank page is a precondition for Oils to bring new capital to veni.
The other explanation is that MCM has been doing her round and saying to creditors and Oils that he will not respect any agreements/contracts made with the current government.

US to Roll Out ‘Economic Isolation’ Plan for Iran Next Week
Bloomberg) -- The US will soon announce what it bills as unprecedented economic measures against Iran, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said, intensifying the Trump administration's effort to force Tehran's capitulation through financial pressure.
"Watch this space for more announcements coming next week because we are going to apply measures like have never been seen in the history of economic isolation on a country," Bessent said Thursday in an interview with Newsmax.
Bessent said the move will be part of a "one-two punch" that includes the continued blockade of Iran's ports.
Iran's economy has already taken a significant hit from the war, with much of its industrial capacity destroyed and crude exports severely curtailed by the US blockade. But the country has weathered waves of sanctions, which have failed to force Tehran to bend on its nuclear program or relinquish control over the Strait of Hormuz.
