Trump Issues Ultimatum to Europe: Join Hormuz Coalition or Risk Losing Ukraine Support

US President Trump has issued a stark warning to European allies, stating that he will halt arms shipments to Ukraine unless they agree to join a coalition aimed at securing the Strait of Hormuz, according to sources privy to confidential discussions with the Financial Times. This ultimatum is reportedly linked to Trump’s dissatisfaction with European countries’ reluctance to participate in a coalition of nations willing to reopen the strategic waterway.

As per the report, Trump has threatened to sever ties with NATO’s Ukraine arms procurement program, which relies heavily on European funding. This move comes on the heels of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s scathing criticism of NATO allies, particularly Spain, for blocking US military operations in their airspace and on their bases during the US-Israel conflict with Iran. Rubio expressed his disappointment with these actions, warning that Washington will reassess the value of its NATO partnership once the conflict subsides.
