Ibrahim Majed: American Bases Are No Longer a Shield. They're Targets.
What was said
"Standing on the sideline of the NATO summit in Ankara, a visibly rattled Donald Trump just pulled the plug on the truce, declaring it's completely over. After a brutal overnight exchange of fire in the straight of Hormuz, listen to the sheer panic in the rhetoric. Instead of acting like a global leader, Trump stood next to Mark Rut and unleashed a torrent of playground insults, calling Iranian leaders cuckoo, sick, and scum."
At a NATO summit in Ankara, President Trump announced the end of the June 17 ceasefire with Iran following an overnight military exchange in the Strait of Hormuz. The announcement came amid reports that Trump was attempting to rally NATO support for military action against Iran, though European allies have reportedly resisted involvement. Turkey's Erdogan subsequently announced Turkey would take responsibility for clearing mines from the Strait of Hormuz, effectively bypassing Trump's NATO mobilization efforts.
