Silence of allies on Hormuz issue: Trump 'disappointed', major powers not responding

International analysts believe that Donald Trump is under pressure due to lack of cooperation from allies in the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. After the military attack by Israel and the United States against Iran for 16 consecutive days, there has been instability in the global energy market. At the same time, new tensions have arisen around the important waterway Strait of Hormuz.

Iran has announced that it will not allow US and Israeli ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. Since about 20 percent of the world's total crude oil is transported through this channel, the war situation has created a major risk to energy supply. Fuel prices have already started to increase in various countries.

In this situation, Trump, in a message on his own social media Truth Social, has called on world powers to deploy warships in the Strait of Hormuz. He expressed hope that China, France, Japan, South Korea and the United Kingdom would provide military assistance to ensure the security of this important trade route.

However, there has been no clear positive response from these powerful countries so far. A spokesman for the UK Ministry of Defense said that they are continuing discussions with allies and partners to ensure the security of shipping in the region, but no decision has been made yet on sending warships.

A spokesman for the Chinese Embassy in Washington told international media that Beijing wants a quick end to the conflict. However, they did not comment directly on whether Trump's call would be responded to.

Meanwhile, Japan, known as a close ally of the United States, has not yet made any official response. The country's officials have told local media that the issue may come up for discussion during the Japanese Prime Minister's upcoming visit to the United States.

On the other hand, France did not immediately respond to Trump's call. The country's Foreign Ministry said that it does not plan to send any warships to the Strait of Hormuz for now. Similarly, South Korea has not yet expressed an official position on the matter.

Analysts say major powers are seeking diplomatic solutions to avoid direct military involvement in order to prevent the spread of war in the Middle East and stabilize global energy markets. However, if the situation drags on for too long, its impact on international politics and the energy economy could be profound.
