Allies Tell Trump NO! – No Support to Reopen Strait of Hormuz that he closed with Iran attack first on Feb 28 2026 for Israel.

U.S. allies in the EU and NATO have largely declined President Donald Trump’s demands for military assistance in the ongoing war with Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil chokepoint that Iran has effectively closed or severely disrupted amid escalating conflict. European leaders, including those from Germany, the UK, and France, have rejected calls to deploy warships or join naval operations, describing the conflict as “not NATO’s war” and expressing concerns over escalation risks, lack of prior consultation, and potential entanglement in a broader Middle East crisis. Trump has criticized this reluctance, warning of consequences for the alliance and framing allied support as essential for securing shipping lanes vital to global energy supplies, while some reports indicate near-universal pushback from Western partners despite soaring oil prices and economic pressures.
