“WASHINGTON, June 11 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday the Strait of Hormuz would be opened as soon as a "great settlement" of the war in Iran was signed, an event he said he expected would happen within days. "We just made a great settlement of the war with Iran", Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. "The strait will officially open as soon as we sign, which could be soon, very soon, maybe over the weekend in Europe," he said.
