Trump scraps proposed Strait of Hormuz shipping fee for Gulf states' investment deals

Trump reinstated a full maritime blockade aimed at Iranian cargo following renewed military clashes, effectively tightening regional shipping access. The policy also includes a swap of Gulf shipping fees for U.S. investment deals, shifting incentives toward U.S.-linked capital while increasing compliance and disruption risk for trade flows tied to the region.
