BREAKING: The Trump administration is now considering using U.S. military forces to move oil and gas tankers through the Strait of Hormuz. White House officials are also weighing government-backed insurance to keep vessels moving.

basically, Trump knows that no matter what happens…oil needs to be moving through the Strait or else prices for EVERYTHING are going much higher

the Saudis won’t be happy for long either if Iran continues to give them issues near the Strait…oil is the epicenter of how everything happens on this planet and any sizeable disruption is devastating

would not be surprised to see multiple countries get ready to do whatever they need to make sure that Strait stays open

Trump says U.S. to provide shipping insurance for Persian Gulf.

President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he had ordered the United States Development Finance Corporation to provide political risk insurance and guarantees for maritime trade traveling through the Persian Gulf.

“This will be available to all Shipping Lines,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

He added that if necessary the United States Navy would begin escorting tankers through the Strait of Hormuz as soon as possible.

“No matter what, the United States will ensure the FREE FLOW of ENERGY to the WORLD. The United States’ ECONOMIC and MILITARY MIGHT is the GREATEST ON EARTH — More actions to come,” he said.
