Washington: With the tension between the US and Iran growing each passing day, President Donald Trump said Iran is "nothing but trouble."
Trump spoke to reporters at the White House on Friday as British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt was confirming that Iran had seized one British and one Liberian-flagged vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.
It was the latest escalation of tension in the strategic waterway that has become a flashpoint in tensions between Tehran and the West.
Trump said he will be speaking shortly with the UK, adding that the two countries have "an agreement," but he didn't expand on what that agreement is.

The incident came as Iran and the United States emphatically disagreed Friday over Washington's claim that a US warship downed an Iranian drone near the Persian Gulf.
