WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump on Monday repeated ​his call to nations to ‌help unblock the Strait of Hormuz , and appeared to criticize countries he said were ​not enthusiastic about providing aid. Trump wants ​nations to help police the strait ⁠after Iran responded to U.S.-Israeli ​attacks by using drones, missiles and ​mines to effectively close the channel for tankers that usually transport a fifth of global ​oil and liquefied natural gas. Trump demands others help secure Strait of Hormuz, Japan and Australia say no plans to send ships “Some ​are very enthusiastic about it, and some aren’t. ‌Some ⁠are countries that we’ve helped for many, many years. We’ve protected them from horrible outside sources, and they ​weren’t that ​enthusiastic. ⁠And the level of enthusiasm matters to me.” Trump ​said at an event at ​the ⁠White House. Several U.S. allies said on Monday they had no immediate plans to ⁠send ​ships to unblock ​the Strait of Hormuz.
