President Donald Trump posted an early morning message on Wednesday suggesting a significant breakthrough in Middle East peace negotiations, with Iran reportedly ready to end hostilities after years of tension, but noted that U.S. armed forces will be "hangin' around" in Iran.
"A big day for World Peace! Iran wants it to happen, they’ve had enough! Likewise, so has everyone else! The United States of America will be helping with the traffic buildup in the Strait of Hormuz. There will be lots of positive action!" Trump wrote at midnight Wednesday.
In the post, Trump indicated that the United States will play a stabilizing role in the strategically critical Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most important shipping routes. The president described plans for American forces to maintain a presence in the region to ensure smooth operations and prevent disruptions to international commerce.
Trump characterized the potential agreement as a transformative moment, comparing it to what he calls the "Golden Age" currently underway in the United States. He suggested economic benefits would follow, with Iran beginning reconstruction efforts and supply shipments flowing into the region.
"Big money will be made," Trump stated, emphasizing the commercial opportunities that could emerge from normalized relations and reduced regional tensions.
He added, "Iran can start the reconstruction process. We’ll be loading up with supplies of all kinds, and just 'hangin’ around' in order to make sure that everything goes well. I feel confident that it will."
The post reflects the administration's ongoing efforts to reshape Middle East geopolitics despite significant domestic and international pushback.
Details regarding the specific terms of any agreement remain unclear.
