Trump calls for global coalition in Strait of Hormuz

The United States is calling on international allies including China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK and potentially Australia to send naval vessels to the Strait of Hormuz to secure global oil trade routes. The US has conducted airstrikes on military targets at Iran's Karg Island, which handles approximately 90 per cent of Iran's crude oil exports, while deliberately leaving oil infrastructure intact. Former Navy SEAL Mike Cirelli discusses the strategic importance of the strait as a global energy chokepoint and the potential for coalition forces to stabilise the region.
