That would have been a wise choice. Probably difficult now, inevitable later.

With global oil supply under pressure due to the Iran war, the US has already suspended sanctions on Russian oil. The EU should follow this example to prevent a supply crisis and bring energy prices down.

The voice of the European subconsciousness. That Europe would one day struggle with the impact of what was essentially an American project to isolate Russia was, I guess, inevitable.

Trump is now trying to push NATO allies and China into helping reopen the Strait. How's the plan going?

The CNN story and Sen. Sheehy's post are talking past each other. The article argues officials underestimated Iran's willingness to close the Strait of Hormuz and didn’t fully plan around it in this operation. Sheehy is rebutting the narrower claim that the administration never anticipated the possibility at all.

🇺🇸🇪🇺🇨🇳 Donald Trump warned NATO faces a “very bad” future if allies refuse to help Washington reopen the Strait of Hormuz during the war on Iran.
In an interview with the Financial Times, Trump said countries benefiting from Gulf oil should share the burden.
“It’s only appropriate that people who are the beneficiaries of the Strait will help to make sure that nothing bad happens there,” he said, noting that Europe and China depend far more on Gulf energy than the US.
Trump also signaled he could delay a planned meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping if Beijing does not help restore access to the shipping route.
“If there’s no response or if it’s a negative response I think it will be very bad for the future of Nato,” he added.
