IRGC spokesman Ali Mohammad Naeini said Iran "will not allow the export of even a single liter of oil from the region to the hostile side and its partners until further notice," calling U.S. efforts to control oil and gas prices "temporary and ineffective." The Guard also said "it is we who will determine the end of the war."

Why it matters

The statement answered Trump's threat directly and widened Iran's pressure from traffic in the strait to Gulf oil exports bound for the U.S. and its partners.
