US-Iran War: US President Donald Trump on Saturday said that a large number of completely empty oil tankers are currently heading towards the United States to load up what he described as the 'best and sweetest' oil and gas in the world. He also claimed that the United States has more oil than 'the next two largest oil economies combined', along with superior quality.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said, "Massive numbers of completely empty oil tankers, some of the largest anywhere in the World, are heading, right now, to the United States to load up with the best and 'sweetest' oil (and gas!) anywhere in the World".

"We have more oil than the next two largest oil economies combined - and higher quality. We are waiting for you. Quick turnaround," he added.
