United States Energy Secretary Chris Wright told lawmakers on Wednesday that he was "unaware" of any operation to remove millions of barrels of oil from Iran, contradicting claims made by President Donald Trump, who previously asserted that the US had been secretly "taking out" millions of barrels of oil from Iran.
"Oh no, I do not think the president is lying. I think the president's talking casually about our efforts to stop the flow of Iranian oil," Wright said when asked whether Trump was lying.
Earlier, Trump revealed that the US had secretly transported millions of barrels of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, and Iran was unaware of this operation until he disclosed it during a press briefing in the Oval Office.
