Trump rallies world to reopen Strait of Hormuz and keep global oil flowing

US President Donald Trump is urging allies to help reopen and secure the critical Strait of Hormuz.

Trump said countries reliant on Middle East oil should send warships to the region alongside the United States.

“Many countries… will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The strategic waterway handles roughly one-fifth of the world’s traded oil supply.

Trump vowed the US will ensure the passage remains “open, safe and free” despite Iranian threats.
