Officials have revealed a threat made by US President Donald Trump. He is reportedly unhappy about a potential agreement between two countries. The deal in question involves managing ship traffic through a critical waterway.

This waterway is important for global oil and natural gas supplies. The US administration has expressed opposition to certain parts of the deal, including joint management of a key exit route. A projectile recently hit a ship in the area, according to a maritime monitoring agency.

Further details about the situation and the US position are available from regional officials who were briefed on the matter.
