Trump Demands UK And Other Nations Send Ships To Strait Of Hormuz by God1000(op): 4:55pm On Mar 14
Donald Trump has urged several nations to send military vessels to protect oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz (Picture: AFP)


Donald Trump has called on countries including the UK to send vessels to the Strait of Hormuz to protect the global oil trade.

The US president claimed oil tankers could still be targeted by Iranian forces despite insisting the US had destroyed ‘100% of Iran’s military capability’.

In a post shared on his Truth Social platform, Trump urged five countries, including China and France, to send military ships to the strait to help get oil supplies safely flowing through the critical chokepoint.

He wrote: ‘Many countries, especially those who are affected by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe.

‘Hopefully China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK, and others, that are affected by this artificial constraint, will send Ships to the area.’

Oil trade through the critical stretch, which spans just 35 miles at its widest point, has been crippled by Iranian strikes.

The strait normally handles a fifth of global crude oil and liquefied natural gas.


When asked, Trump promised on Friday that US navy ships would soon start escorting vessels through the targeted patch, conceding that Iran was still able to severely disrupt shipping in the strait despite its depleted military force.

‘We have already destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military capability, but it’s easy for them to send a drone or two, drop a mine, or deliver a close range missile somewhere along, or in, this Waterway, no matter how badly defeated they are’, the president said.

But he remained defiant that he would get the strait ‘open, safe and free’.

Britain is already sending HMS Dragon to protect RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus after the base was hit by a drone attack.

However the vessel would not reach the Mediterranean island until at least a week after it sets sail from Portsmouth.

It comes as Trump threatened to strike the island of Kharg if the blockade on the strait was not lifted soon.

The coral island is one of Iran’s most valuable assets and handles nearly all of its oil exports.

Petras Katinas, an energy researcher at the Royal United Services Institute, it would be difficult for Iran’s government to continue to function if it lost control of Kharg.

Re: Trump Demands UK And Other Nations Send Ships To Strait Of Hormuz by God1000(op):
Oga fight alone, did you consult these countries before you attacked Iran

This is really shameful, coming from someone that once said he doesn't need UK support and that he had already won the war, the so-called superpower is now begging other countries for help, he's been so arrogant and rude to allies & other countries since he took over thinking america alone can do it all.


He's calling on china as well, this man is truly a comedian

Get your facts rights before going to press with unsubstantiated propaganda.

He already told the UK that the war is already over .. so all the Nonsense UK is doing now is irrelevant.

Uk and france were active when they attacked Iraq...and even libya, so does it make UK now a good country because they delayed in activating support?

EU is a disgrace...in a bid to activate WOKENESS they allowed Islamic jihadists running from prosecution from their fellow Arabs to migrate extensively to Europe. Why didn't they allow you Africans? They believed that the Arabians will bring prosperity because EU as a Colonialist enterprise sees only gains in any relationship.

Elon Musk warned them
Trump warned them

Now in Europe radical islamist that naturalized in EU countries are a menace.

The EU, fears a distabilizing protest or uprising will consume them that is why they are being neutral. So stop celebrating NONSENSE, the EU is already a conquered zone.

Nonsense.

Of all names he mentioned, China amused me the most. People that are providing credible intelligence to Iran. Las Las US will threaten Iran with Nuclear weapon if they discovered that Iran will it back down ( we all know US/Israel have failed already) and using a nuclear weapon in Iran will lead to a devastating world war which may end the world forever. Trump is really a low Brain Presido. Disgusting evil

So why is he now begging the same UK and other nations for help, you people are shameless

Propaganda doesn't win war
Re: Trump Demands UK And Other Nations Send Ships To Strait Of Hormuz by esnbrutality: 5:11pm On Mar 14
Where did he beg for help? I thought you had a brain ooo..

He explicitly said that AMERICA will remember UKs actions during these times. When UK wanted to reactivate he told them that he has already finished the war. That was when the same UK was told POINT BLANK that their Navy wasn't needed.

UK doesn't regard you...why not call out European countries like

Turkey
UK
France

..that have been accused of arming Boko Haram and sponsoring terrorism?

Go and sleep.

What a time to be alive!

Unbelievable! The most “powerful” country in the world is begging the world to help it fight Iran. A country with 47 years of sanctions.

Iran—-you have brought America to its knees.

Re: Trump Demands UK And Other Nations Send Ships To Strait Of Hormuz by madridguy(m): 5:23pm On Mar 14
Trump: "We destroyed 100% of Iran's military"

Also Trump: "Please China, France, Japan, UK – send your warships, we're begging!"

If Iran is "totally decapitated" why are you crying for help?

Your "quick win" turned into endless begging and bombing.

Trump wants to share defeat. But he never wants to share victory and success.

Those of us who know about intentional politics or have followed international politics with the U.S. can predict that the regime is gone.

No one even knows if the current supreme leader is alive or not. The revolution guide might just be using the photo to control the Iranian people.

Here is the new plan.

Trump is ready to put warships in the Strait of Hormuz. Then men on boots will enter Iran.

Trump already proposed the seizing of Kharg Island. That's an oil island, which they will use to recoup expenses of the war from the Gulf nations. And they all agreed, including Saudi Arabia.

Trump is lobbying the UK and other partners to help open the Strait of Hormuz.

Those that keep saying, "What is the end game?"—the island is now the end game. The Kurdish will be armed and pull from the north. While the U.S. force will push from the south.

France and Britain are joining the force now.

Iran will never remain the same after those terrorists are eliminated.

The endgame is to install back the exiled prince and control that island. This war will be ended as quickly as possible.

Iran is weak right now; don't listen to online warriors.

Nonsense.
This is a result of inadequate education or perhaps, lack of self re-education. The throve of middle easterners into Europe is as a result of Europe's action in thier countries. This is the same as the case of Africans in Europe and America. Unfortunately, someone like you will probably have been one of the chiefs selling his people for mirrors just to feel important and aligned with the "powerful". You also mentioned Musk the bloody white supremacist whose fore father's stole our brothers land. You have a lot of cool role models .
