Trump blasts allies, urges them to "take" Hormuz on their own

U.S. President Donald Trump has suggested that the United Kingdom and other countries “handle the Strait of Hormuz on their own.”

“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil!” Caliber.Az quotes Trump as saying in a post on Truth Social.
