Trump Claims Iran Sent Oil Tankers as a ‘Present’ in Negotiations

TL;DR Summary
President Trump said Iran sent eight oil tankers as a goodwill gesture to show they’re serious about negotiations to end the war, later saying the number was ten; he framed the move as evidence Iran is ‘real’ and ‘solid.’ The claim coincides with Iran allowing some tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global oil, as Washington extends the deadline to reopen the strait and warnings of retaliation surface amid higher oil prices.
