President Donald Trump does not consider Iran’s seizure of two ships a violation of the ceasefire, White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said Wednesday. “No, because they were not American ships, they were not Israeli ships. They were two international ships,” she told Fox News when asked if the seizure violated the ceasefire between the United States and Iran. She further emphasized that the Iranians “do not control the Strait of Hormuz. What we are seeing is piracy.”
