BFMTV reports Donald Trump’s social-media response on the Strait of Hormuz issue: he says there will be no toll during the 60-day ceasefire period, and not after either, unless the United States itself imposes one for security/service reasons. The segment frames this as a continuation of Trump’s stance, while noting ongoing ambiguity and escalation between Iran and the U.S./West over freedom of navigation.

This short BFMTV segment is a geopolitical-market update centered on Donald Trump’s message about the Strait of Hormuz. The speaker says Trump’s post is the first official reaction from him and that it reiterates his position: there should be no toll or levy on shipping through Hormuz. The key point is that Trump’s wording still leaves room for ambiguity, because he appears to tell the Iranians that no fee should be imposed over the next 60 days, and then adds that beyond that period the U.S. could impose one itself if it were for ‘service rendu’ and to ensure the security of Gulf countries. The speaker then contrasts the Iranian and Western positions. According to the segment, Iran wants to charge a “droit de redevance de service,” while the Americans are firmly opposed. …
Tactically, the Hormuz headline is a live risk event: any confirmation of a toll, shipping restriction, or renewed escalation would be the immediate catalyst. The setup is headline-sensitive and can move Gulf shipping and energy-risk sentiment quickly.
Over the next few weeks, the likely path is a noisy standoff with periodic rhetoric unless there is a concrete U.S.-Iran accommodation. A stable reading needs confirmed freedom-of-navigation assurances; otherwise the market will keep pricing intermittent geopolitical risk.
Structurally, Hormuz remains a durable chokepoint risk for global energy transport. The lasting regime implication is that the region’s shipping economics stay vulnerable to political leverage and security signaling from Washington and Tehran.
Donald Trump said no toll will be collected in the Strait of Hormuz for the next 60 days and beyond, unless the United States decides to impose one.
The speaker describes Trump's post as restating opposition to any toll while adding a caveat that only the United States could impose it later.
Iran wants to charge a service fee or toll in the Strait of Hormuz, while the United States and Western countries oppose it because freedom of navigation is at stake.
The speaker states that the Iranians want a fee, that the Americans are totally against it, and that France and Western countries reject it on navigation grounds.
The Strait of Hormuz toll issue remains unresolved and will be a point of negotiation between the United States and Iran.
The speaker says the matter is still 'on the table' and that it remains to be seen whether the Americans and Iranians can reach an agreement.
