U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday renewed his call for other nations to help secure the Strait of Hormuz and said the United States will coordinate with them amid the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.


"The United States of America has beaten and completely decimated Iran, both Militarily, Economically, and in every other way, but the Countries of the World that receive Oil through the Hormuz Strait must take care of that passage, and we will help — A LOT!" Trump wrote on Truth Social.
