US President Donald Trump is growing increasingly frustrated with European allies over their reluctance to support American efforts in the Iran conflict, United States Senator Lindsey Graham said.
Graham posted on X that Trump had 'never seen him so angry' over Europe's unwillingness to contribute resources to keep the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz operational.
The remarks point to a widening rift between Washington and its European partners, with Graham criticising allies for failing to step up, arguing that the functioning of the Strait of Hormuz benefits Europe far more than the United States.
He also accused European nations of downplaying the threat posed by Iran's nuclear ambitions, calling their approach ineffective.
Warning of broader consequences, Graham said limited cooperation could have serious implications for both Europe and the United States.
