On May 1, local time in the U.S., Trump officially announced that the Hormuz Strait is "100% shut down" and issued a devastating threat to Iran: sign a deal or be completely destroyed. Just as the market held its breath watching the conflict in the Middle East, Trump dropped another bombshell early this morning (May 2), declaring that the U.S. will "almost immediately" take over Cuba.

Trump announces a 25% tariff on EU cars starting next week, using exemption clauses to force "factory construction in the U.S.") Geopolitical "maximum pressure" has evolved into substantive blockades and threats of war. U.S. President Donald Trump has made a series of bombshell remarks over the past 24 hours that have left global markets suffocating. According to information compiled by financial news account Walter Bloomberg (@DeItaone), Trump officially set the tone for the current Middle East situation on the afternoon of May 1, local time in the U.S., and subsequently extended the front to the Caribbean, shocking the international community. Hormuz Strait completely blocked, U.S. military refuses to withdraw At 16:32 ET on May 1, Trump stated clearly: "Hormuz Strait is 100% shut down." This means that one-fifth of the global crude oil supply chain has officially been severed. He subsequently emphasized that the U.S. military has no intention of leaving the strait, with the goal of ensuring that the problem does not happen again. Regarding the progress of negotiations with Iran, Trump revealed that the two sides had just held talks, but he was "very dissatisfied" with the current status quo and the demands made by Iran, and rejected their proposal. Trump issued a black-and-white survival choice to Iran: "Either blast them away, or reach a deal." When reporters pressed for details on specific military strike plans, Trump only replied: "Why would I tell you?" Shocking addition: Declares the U.S. will "almost immediately" take over Cuba Just as the situation in the Middle East reached a stalemate, Trump suddenly threw out another highly controversial declaration of territorial expansion early this morning (00:27, May 2). He declared: "The U.S. will take over Cuba almost immediately." Although Trump did not specify whether the "takeover" would be achieved through military, diplomatic, or economic annexation, this statement has immediately triggered violent turmoil in Latin American politics. From the total blockade of energy chokepoints to the declaration of seizing Cuba, Trump is single-handedly pushing global geopolitics into an unprecedented high-pressure environment.
