In a comment on the social network Truth Social, Trump stated that Iran insisted on this agreement. "A great day for world peace! Iran wants this to happen, they've had enough! Likewise, everyone else has done enough! The United States will help 'pile up' traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. There will be many positive actions! A lot of money will be made. Iran can begin the process of rebuilding. We will stock up on all kinds of supplies and just 'hang around' to ensure everything goes well. I am confident it will. Just as we are experiencing in the U.S., this could be a golden age for the Middle East!" Trump said. Following the announcement of a temporary ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt celebrated this development. "This is a victory for the United States made possible by President Trump and our incredible military. From the very beginning of Operation 'Epic Rage,' President Trump estimated that this would be a 4 to 6 week operation," Leavitt stated. Leavitt also credited Trump, saying he contributed to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
