It’s being reported that Great Britain’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer is refusing to help President Trump blockade the Strait of Hormuz, but he is willing to help locate the mines in the strait.
Here’s more from the Telegraph:
Sir Keir Starmer has refused to join Donald Trump’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
The Telegraph understands Britain will not send warships to enforce the blockade of oil tankers after Mr Trump said the US Navy would be helped by other countries.
Instead, the UK will deploy minesweepers to clear the waterway, which has been seized by Iran since the war began.
On Sunday evening, Mr Trump announced that the US Navy would begin stopping “any and all ships trying to enter or leave the Strait of Hormuz” after negotiations to end the war collapsed.
Well I guess that’s something.
