Trump said Iran is now a "paper tiger" after two weeks of US strikes, and pressed allies to join the Hormuz operation, noting Japan gets 95% of its oil through the strait, China 90%, and South Korea 35%, while the US gets less than 1%. Trump added Putin "does not fear Europe at all" but fears the United States, calling NATO effectively an American institution. Trump also suggested Macron may help on Hormuz but added "we don't need anyone, we are the strongest nation in the world."
