Trump criticizes ‘non-responsive allies’ over Strait of Hormuz
US President Donald Trump on Wednesday said countries that rely on the Strait of Hormuz should take responsibility for securing the waterway, in a post on Truth Social.
“I wonder what would happen if we ‘finished off’ what’s left of the Iranian Terror State,” Trump wrote, adding that countries that use the Strait of Hormuz could then be responsible for it.
He also referred to “non-responsive allies,” saying such a move would get them “in gear, and fast.”
Minutes later, Trump said Iran was “the NUMBER ONE STATE SPONSOR OF TERROR” and added: “We are rapidly putting them out of business!”
