The White House announced the possibility of tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz.

Tankers began passing through the Strait of Hormuz again. This was announced on March 17 by Kevin Hassett, head of the National Economic Council at the White House.

"You can already see that tankers are starting to seep through the strait, and I think this is a sign of how few resources Iran has left. We are very optimistic and believe that this (the conflict in Iran. It will end in the short term," Hassett said in an interview with CNBC.

When the tankers reach the refineries, in his opinion, oil price balancing should follow. He also noted that the United States has a plan in case of any disruptions, including the supply of fertilizers and fuel.

In the same interview, Hassett said that Washington is confident that the situation with the transportation of oil through the waters of the Strait of Hormuz is under the control of the US authorities. He stressed that the situation could stabilize in the coming "weeks, not months."

On March 16, US President Donald Trump announced the imminent end of the operation against Iran. He stressed that he had no doubt about the appropriate outcome.
