United States President Donald Trump told Fox News on Sunday
that NATO countries are now willing to help the US regarding Iran’s
blockade of the Hormuz Strait, AzerNEWS
reports.
He also repeated what he wrote earlier today about imposing a
naval blockade of Iran.
The closure of the waterway will “take some time,” the US leader
added. Trump clarified that NATO wants to help clear mines from the
strait, while likening the impending blockade to the US military
operation in Venezuela, but on a “higher level”.
Additionally, Trump again declared that the main remaining
problem in talks with the Iranians was their unwillingness to give
up nuclear ambitions, reiterating that Washington would not allow
it. Speaking about his post on social media, warning that a “whole
civilization would die,” the US president clarified the statement
brought the Iranians to the negotiating table.
