- Donald Trump issued a strong warning to the UK, stating the "US won’t be there to help you anymore" in an "extraordinary rant" concerning the situation in Iran.
- He criticised the Labour government and Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer for "refusing to get involved in the decapitation of Iran", urging them to "build up some delayed courage".
- Trump advised countries, including the UK, struggling with jet fuel access due to the Strait of Hormuz, to either buy from the US or "go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT".
- He asserted that the "hard part is done" in Iran, implying other nations should now secure their own oil, as the US would no longer provide assistance.
- These remarks follow reports that Trump is considering withdrawing from the conflict without a plan to keep the Strait of Hormuz open, potentially leaving Tehran in control and prolonging global economic instability.
