Donald Trump posted an image of the Moon on his Truth Social page with the caption "The Moon is ours."
However, experts pointed out that such a claim lacks any basis in international law. Under international space treaties, the Moon and other celestial bodies cannot be the property of any nation. Jamie Matthews, a professor emeritus of astronomy at the University of British Columbia, stated that the fact that the US landed on the Moon does not give the country the right to claim it as its own territory.
Previously, Trump had expressed a desire to name a lunar object after himself. He also proposed declaring the Strait of Hormuz US territory and renaming it the "Trump Strait."
