President Donald Trump<\/a> spoke with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Sunday to discuss escalating tensions in the Middle East, with a focus on the urgent need to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and restore global shipping.<\/p>\n

The leaders discussed the current situation in the Middle East, and in particular, the need to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to resume global shipping, Downing Street said in a statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“They agreed that reopening the Strait of Hormuz was essential to ensure stability in the global energy market. They agreed to speak again soon.”<\/p>\n

The call came amid a rapidly intensifying conflict in the region, with Iran blocking the strategically vital strait since the United States and Israel launched coordinated strikes against Iranian targets on Feb. 28.<\/p>\n

The military action triggered swift retaliation from Tehran and has since escalated into a broader regional war<\/a> as Iran has sent missiles into numerous neighboring countries not directly involved in the initial conflict.<\/p>\n

On March 21, Trump issued a 48-hour ultimatum to Iran<\/a> demanding the reopening of the key maritime route, through which approximately 20% of the world\u2019s oil supply passes.<\/p>\n

In a post on Truth Social, Trump warned that failure to comply would result in further U.S. action, including potential strikes on Iran\u2019s energy infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Sunday’s conversation between Trump and Starmer perhaps reflected a thaw in the tense relationship between the two leaders.<\/p>\n

Trump had publicly criticized the U.K. government, stating that Britain “should have acted a lot faster” in allowing the U.S. to use British military bases<\/a> for strikes targeting Iranian missile sites.<\/p>\n

Starmer had also maintained that the use of U.K. bases<\/a> could only be justified under the principle of “collective self-defense” in the region.<\/p>\n

He had initially declined to support the U.S.-Israeli military<\/a> operation, drawing repeated criticism from the White House.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Trump appeared to apply public pressure, sharing a “Saturday Night Live” clip Sunday mocking the British prime minister\u2019s handling of the crisis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
