The United States is demanding concrete commitments from its European allies to ensure freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, Bloomberg reports.
According to sources, the U.S. expects clear proposals from its partners in the coming days, following the ceasefire reached with Iran.
The issue was discussed during talks at the White House, where U.S. President Donald Trump met with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
Earlier, a UK-led coalition of more than 40 countries expressed readiness to help reopen the strait after active hostilities in the Middle East ceased.
At the same time, tensions in the region remain high. Tehran has stated that Israel’s attacks on the Hezbollah-linked group in Lebanon violate the terms of the ceasefire.
