Trump suggested renaming Strait of Hormuz to 'Trump Strait' on Sep 2, 2026.
The move continues his pattern of renaming landmarks, but the strait is contested.
背景
Trump has repeatedly proposed renaming geographical features, often after himself, during his second term. This latest suggestion comes amid ongoing conflict with Iran over the strait, which he claims is under U.S. control. Previous renames include the Gulf of Mexico to 'Gulf of America' and Lake Ontario to 'Lake America', neither accepted by other countries.
