The US president has “threatened to stop” supplying weapons for Ukraine to pressure European allies to join a “coalition of the willing” to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, the Financial Times reports, quoting people briefed on the discussions.
According to the report, Trump threatened to stop supplies to NATO’s weapons procurement initiative for Ukraine, which is funded by European countries.
On Tuesday, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told Al Jazeera it was “very disappointing” that NATO allies such as Spain blocked the use of their airspace and bases for the US-Israel war on Iran. He warned that Washington will re-examine the value of NATO after the war is over.
Why should this lever not work?
Nobody is sending their soldiers to die for his impulsive, poorly thought out war. especially after he has spent years antagonizing allies.

Wouldn’t the billionaires tell the Republicans to start an impeachment if the war was just Trump’s idea? It’s like the ballroom. Turns out, it wasn’t Trump’s idea to tear down the East Wing.
Yeah it was pitched to him. We know Lindsey coached Israel on how to sell the war to Trump. But he did ultimately agree to it and he’s the commander-in-chief so its ultimately his responsibility. No other president agreed to this stupidity.
CEOs continue to brown nose him despite his tariffs being bad for business as he at the least will rubber stamp their mergers and other anti-consumer policies.
It’s Trump’s responsibility but others could intervene. Soldiers don’t have to execute illegal orders and Congress doesn’t have to finance the war and the media can become much more critical and can call for a general strike.
The elite agrees with Trump.
The Euros will not allow their their remaining surface fleet to be sunk in a suicide mission in Hormuz, no matter how much they glaze Ukraine
Nov, but they might decide to do a suicide mission in the ukraine in a desperate attempt to stop any blowback from nazi terrorcells deciding they lost the war bc of germany and wanting to retaliate.
The year is
19452027 and it’s a mad dash to the Nazi capitol to prevent those dirty Russians from being the sole captors and thus being free to ask some very uncomfortable questions.Also how can the western powers possibly run NATO and develop aerospace technology without pardoned nazis-in-exile?
