Desperate Trump Is Now Begging Allies Who Snubbed Him for Help

Donald Trump is desperately calling on other countries to help end the Strait of Hormuz crisis sparked by the president’s war with Iran.

The Trump administration is issuing a request for allies to join an international coalition, called the “Maritime Freedom Construct,” to help reopen the vital shipping route and end the global oil crisis.

The allies he is now begging for help are the same ones he has frequently attacked and threatened for refusing to get sucked into his war. A month ago, in his address to the nation, Trump declared that the Strait of Hormuz was not his problem and U.S. allies would need to resolve it themselves.
