Donald Trump announced via his Truth Social platform on Monday that he plans to deliver a speech to the people on the East Coast. The scheduled time for the address is Thursday evening at 9 PM Eastern Time (which corresponds to 3 PM in Lithuania). While the announcement confirmed the date and time, Trump did not specify the topic of the forthcoming speech, and the White House has not issued a detailed follow-up regarding its content.
This communication followed a series of statements from Trump concerning international policy. Earlier on Monday, he announced intentions to reestablish a US naval blockade targeting Iran. Furthermore, the announcement indicated that Washington would implement a 20% tax levied on all vessels transiting through the Strait of Hormuz.
The combination of these policy statements and the planned address suggests a focus on geopolitical and economic matters for the people. The details surrounding the scope of the naval blockade and the imposition of new tariffs have generated discussion regarding potential shifts in US foreign policy. The announcement for Thursday serves as the primary focus for media attention, as it sets the stage for further discussion on the issues Trump has raised.
Observers are awaiting further clarification from the White House regarding the specific themes that will guide the speech to the people.
