European allies and India reject Trump's call for naval help in Strait of Hormuz

President Donald Trump called on European allies and other nations to send warships to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which is currently blocked. He framed this as a request for NATO assistance.

Key allies, including the United Kingdom, France, and the broader European Union, have refused the request. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer explicitly ruled out any NATO mission there. India also stated it has had 'no bilateral discussion' with the US about forming a combined force for the strait.
