Trump Warns NATO Faces 'Very Bad' Future If Allies Refuse Hormuz Help

President Trump issued a stark warning that NATO faces a 'very bad' future if European allies decline to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Trump told the Financial Times: 'It's only appropriate that people who are the beneficiaries of the Strait will help to make sure that nothing bad happens there. If there's no response or if it's a negative response, I think it will be very bad for the future of NATO.' European allies had not been consulted before the US-Israel military action against Iran, which effectively closed the strait to shipping.
