President Donald Trump claimed on June 23, days after the U.S. and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding intended to bring an end to the ongoing conflict between them, that 19 million barrels of oil had transited the Strait of Hormuz the previous day, calling the volume an “all time RECORD.” No publicly available sources confirm that 19 million barrels of oil made it through the strait on June 22, and considerable data, including from the federal government, show that the figure would not be an all-time record.
