The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation risks a “very bad” future if its member states do not help reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which remains almost completely closed, US President Donald Trump asserted yesterday Sunday during an interviewwith the Financial Times.
“It is entirely appropriate that those who benefit from this alley help guarantee that nothing bad happens down there,” the Republican told the newspaper, recalling that Europe and China are highly dependent on oil exported from the Gulf, unlike the US.
“If there is no response (p.σ. to his demand that other countries send warships there), or if the response is negative, I think that will have very bad consequences for the future of NATO,” Donald Trump added.
