President Donald Trump has launched another sharp critique against European nations for not joining his war on Iran, telling them to “go get your own oil” by force if they’re worried about fuel prices. This comes as several European countries are actively pushing back against the conflict, with France blocking Israeli planes from flying weapons through its airspace and Italy refusing landing permission for US bombers.
According to The Guardian, the president took to Truth Social on March 31, 2026, to unleash a tirade, specifically calling out the UK and France. He said that countries struggling to get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the UK, which “refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran,” should instead buy US oil. He even suggested they “build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT.”
