"Based on highly productive conversations with Middle East leadership, I have decided to replace the 20 per cent United States Reimbursement Fee with Trade and Investment Deals that the various Gulf States will be making into the United States," he said in a post on Truth Social. The initial 20% fee proposal had drawn opposition from the U.N.'s shipping agency, which generally opposes fees on maritime waterways. If the US were to impose a 20 per cent fee, it could generate around US$240 million a day.
Furthermore, Before the war, about a fifth of global oil and gas traffic passed through Hormuz daily. Instead, renewed fighting has engulfed the region, threatening the global economy and triggering warnings for commercial airlines.
