      what are they gonna talk about ? sanctioning US and Israel to stop the attacks ? Is there anything these 35-37 countries can do to open the strait ?

      This is a pretty big deal, not just because the strait is effectively shut, but because the US is actively sitting it out. Trump basically told everyone „go get your own oil“ and the UK actually called that bluff.

      The two-phase plan makes sense on paper, diplomacy first then military cleanup after a ceasefire. But the elephant in the room is Iran. They’re still launching missiles and have zero incentive to negotiate while the strait is their best leverage. And without US warships in the mix, a 35-nation coalition is mostly just a lot of countries agreeing that someone else should fix the problem.

      Also worth noting: several of those 35 nations (like Australia) have openly said their navies aren’t really ready for this kind of high-intensity mission. So the gap between political will and actual capability is pretty wide.

      Realistically, this is the UK doing damage control and trying to keep global energy markets from totally collapsing. But until there’s a ceasefire, the strait stays shut and Iran knows it.

      „Go get your own oil!“

      UK: Okay. Hey, 35 countries, we’re going to see how to get our own oil, you in?

      35 countries: Bet!

      Incoming Truth Social meltdown about how unfair this all is?

      It won’t work whilst America trying to decide what it’s war aims actually were. May not work after that either.

      But after the abject failure of America at least someone is beginning to think how to de-escalate the mess the Orange Cockwomble created.

      They will shift further from the US and make deals with Iran via China (and probably India) to resolve it as soon as possible with no military action. Both China and Iran will be receptive because all that matters is making the US look like this entire excursion wasn’t worth it, but they’ll still make a play to bring an end to the Petrodollar.

      You’re all missing the point – they will just make a deal to pay a toll per ship and Iran will be the new master of the Strait moving forward.

      Trump: EU better spend more on defence, they are a paper tiger

      EU spends more but buy from EU countries

      Trump: NOT LIKE THAT 🙁

      Would be funny is diplomacy wins the day. The US pull out, declaring ‚victory‘, everyone nods at them while side-eyeing each other behind their backs

      Everyone else has access and the US has to pay various fees for vessels through the Straits

      I know it *won’t* happen like that but it’d be funny

      The longer term solution is phasing out fossil fuels completely ([currently](https://grid.iamkate.com) only 15.6% of the UK’s electricity comes from fossil fuels, so the major remaining frontier is vehicles). China as always will be the winner as the largest manufacturer of solar panels, batteries, EVs, wind turbines and so on.

      Just going to talk drink some wine, spend tax payer money and resolve nothing. As usual

      Just agree anything but American boats or boats bound for America can use it.

      They elected a war mongering child rapist. They can have the concequences.

      I really hope they sort a peaceful opening of the straight. Trump will rage, the oil will flow.

      We’re witnessing in real time the establishment of a new world order. The West is now building itself as a united front, *without* the US.

      Trump couldn’t make it anyways, he has a Bored Of Peace meeting that day, and they’re going to McDonalds afterwards.

    20. SkipsH on

      The UK seems to be doing a really good job of being a diplomatic centre for a lot of conversation recently.

    21. SP1570 on

      Israel and the US declared war on the world order and eventually a new one must come out it…maybe not the one they would have wanted.

    22. 10pencefredo on

      Come on guys. Pull together and make a non-combative deal with Iran. If the US are not part of it or we have to pay in Yuan, that’s on the US. They alienated themselves. We need to face up to their new future. I just hope Iran will be on board.

      If Starmer gets a peace prize it will be the best thing ever – Trump will legit explode 

    24. BecauseBatman01 on

      Honestly if I was in government I would come to realize you can’t trust Trump for anything. Dude just goes with the flow of whoever is throwing money at him and is quick to bite back at you at a moments whim.

      It’s best to just find solutions outside of the US and get them back in the table once Trump is out of office. You just can’t deal with people like him.

      Imagine Iran allowing all ships to pass free of charge except those that head to the US or Israel, but I wonder how they would enforce something like that.

    28. cecirdr on

      The world is re-globalizing without us. We are now a pariah. Maybe we thought we’d deglobalize the world and knock everyone down, but instead, they’ll just make their deals with each other and leave us out. We are in for a world of hurt.

      So much winning! /s

      What people need to understand is there are three countries who run the world. The US, Russia, & China. There’s nothing these small european countries can do. They’ve had eighty years to build up their military and instead remained reliant on the US. Europe put themselves between a rock and a hard place. These „talks“ are just lip service to voters who are half paying attention and will amount to nothing. By the end of the month Europe will be fully involved in the middle east simply because they have no other choice.

      Everyone should really just abandon the petrodollar, it’s the perfect opportunity to do so. The US has abused their position of priviledge for long enough.

    32. Confident-Visual7651 on

      The one to cause this whole mess just decides not to show up to school the day its time to have the talk.
