In a recent interview with CBS News, Trump affirmed his commitment to pressuring Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, stating he is "not ready" to abandon the effort. Despite expressing dissatisfaction with the lack of international military support, Trump emphasized that the U.S. will not withdraw from the conflict at this time. He urged other countries to take more responsibility, noting that while Iran continues to target ships and infrastructure in the Persian Gulf, there is "no real threat" to the strait itself. Trump criticized NATO and other nations for their inaction, suggesting they should independently secure their oil interests. He remarked, "Let them fight for it themselves. They don't want to help anyone. NATO is bad, they're all bad. So if they want oil, they'll go get it themselves."
