Trump Warns NATO and China to Support Reopening Strait of Hormuz Amid Conflict

U.S. President Donald Trump warned that NATO could face a "very bad" future if allies do not assist in reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil shipping route disrupted amid the ongoing conflict involving Iran. He urged European countries and China, which heavily depend on Gulf oil, to contribute military support such as minesweepers and warships. Trump also indicated that his planned summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping might be delayed pending China's position on the issue. The disruption has caused global energy price increases and heightened geopolitical tensions.
