US EditionTrump says he is strongly considering pulling out of NATO
Trump said NATO members refused to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz, as oil prices rose and 35 countries joined a security effort, officials said.
- President Donald Trump said he is considering withdrawing the United States from NATO, calling the alliance a "paper tiger" after European allies refused to grant basing rights or deploy warships to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
- Since the conflict with Iran began on February 28, 2026, Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway carrying roughly 20 percent of the world's oil supply, sparking a severe global energy crisis.
- Legislation passed in the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act, co-authored by Senator Tim Kaine and Senator Marco Rubio, prohibits unilateral withdrawal without two-thirds Senate approval or an act of Congress.
- Defending NATO as "the single most effective military alliance," British Prime Minister Keir Starmer asserted he would act in Britain's national interest while pursuing closer economic and security ties with the European Union.
- International Energy Agency data indicates global oil supplies will be hit twice as hard in April as in March, prompting Romania to implement fuel markup caps and export restrictions on April 1.
