Trump Rushes to Save His War on the World
President Trump seeks naval and infantry support from NATO allies to secure the Strait of Hormuz and uses tariffs to pressure cooperation amid rising Iran conflict.
- Eight days ago, President Donald Trump urged NATO allies to send infantry, warning 'We need your infantry to help us hold the coast and if we don't get it, NATO is dead', following the UK's consideration of sending two aircraft carriers.
- Last week the war in Iran dominated attention, and China buys 90 percent of Iran's oil while tankers pass through the Strait of Hormuz, raising maritime stakes.
- Last week, the administration launched Section 301 probes of 16 trade partners and 60 trade partners over forced-labour concerns, while replacing tariffs with Section 122 for 150 days amid legal challenges.
- Analysts warn the twin pressures of trade actions and the Iran war are hurting the U.S. economy, raising oil and petrol prices and shaping risks before November midterm elections.
- After earlier tariff threats toward eight NATO members, legal and diplomatic strain may grow as officials warn 16 separate tariff cases within a tight timeframe risk mistakes.
