Summary

A new US policy under President Donald Trump to impose tolls on ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz has sparked international condemnation. India summoned Iran’s envoy after an Indian sailor was killed in attacks linked to the Hormuz situation. Brazilian President Lula called the toll scheme 'piracy,' while China urged normal passage through the strait as Trump reinstated a blockade. The controversy centers on Trump’s plan to charge fees for transit through the strategic waterway.
