President Trump warned Iran against charging tolls on vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz, accusing Tehran of doing a "poor job" of reopening the waterway under ceasefire terms. Iran has demanded $1 per barrel in cryptocurrency from ships seeking passage. The White House insists the strait must be open "without limitation, including tolls," while Tehran maintains it retains sovereign authority over the waterway.
