Former US President Barack Obama has criticized the Trump administration in unprecedented and harsh terms in the election campaign ahead of the upcoming November 3 mid-term elections in the United States. Speaking at a public meeting in Cleveland, Ohio, he strongly criticized the current Donald Trump, saying that the current president has made one wrong decision after another. The biggest mistake is to start an unnecessary war that no one ever demanded.
Due to this joint attack by the United States and Israel, Iran has blocked the Strait of Hormuz. As a result, the price of fuel oil in the international market has increased dramatically.
After Obama's statement, Donald Trump reacted sharply. In a post on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump attacked Obama and wrote that Obama was a very incompetent president. He cited the 2015 nuclear deal, accusing the Obama administration of appeasing Iran in the past with billions of dollars and paving the way for them to acquire nuclear weapons.
