REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, WASHINGTON \u2013 US President Donald J Trump is fuming\nfollowing the absence of assistance from any country other than Israel\nin attacking Iran. He instructed other nations to fetch their own\nrequired oil from the Strait of Hormuz, which is currently blockaded by\nIran.<\/p>\n
In a post on Truth Social, US President Donald Trump suggested that\ncountries like the UK must build \u201ccourage\u201d to go to the Strait of Hormuz\nand \u201ctake\u201d their own fuel.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou must start learning how to fight for yourselves; the US will not\nbe there to help you anymore, just as you were not there for us,\u201d Trump\nsaid as he criticised countries that \u201crefuse to get involved in the\ndestruction of Iran\u201d.<\/p>\n
He stated that these countries could purchase \u201cjet fuel\u201d from the US,\nof which there is \u201cplenty\u201d, if their supplies are running low. \u201cIran\nhas, essentially, been destroyed. The hardest part is over. Take your\nown oil!\u201d Trump concluded his social media post by saying he would\nannounce further statements on the matter soon.<\/p>\n
So far, no US allies in Europe have been willing to deploy military\nforces to attack Iran. European leaders insist that the illegal\nUS-Israel attack on Iran is not their war. Germany, a close ally of the\nUS and Israel, even stated that the attack is illegal and disrupts world\nconditions.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Gulf countries hosting US military bases have also not\nbeen willing to enter the battlefield despite their territories being\nbombed by Iran. The recent message emerging is that they, like Iran, are\nvictims of impulsive US and Israeli aggression.<\/p>\n
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated that there would be actions\nagainst US allies in NATO regarding their stance of refusing to join the\nwar.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd for NATO, that decision is left to the president. But I just\nwant to say, a lot has been revealed. A lot has been shown to the world\nabout what our allies are willing to do for the United States when we\nmake such a great effort on behalf of the free world,\u201d Hegseth said at a\npress conference on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
As if forgetting that the US started the war, he said that so far, US\nallies have been the targets of Iranian missiles. \u201cThose missiles\nhaven\u2019t even reached the United States. They target allies and others.\nBut when we ask for additional help or simple flight access, we get\nquestions or obstacles or hesitations.\u201d<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/trump-rants-no-help-from-allies-in-war-against-iran-1774968695", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
