UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer today said Britain is working with allies on a plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz but will not be drawn into the wider war. Prime Minister Starmer stated this during a press conference today. He spoke after US President Donald Trump said he had demanded that US allies send warships to open the key oil shipment route. Mr Starmer said Britain is discussing with the US and allies in Europe and the Gulf the possibility of using mine-hunting drones that the UK has in the region. But he signalled that the UK is unlikely to dispatch a warship. President Trump has berated Prime Minister Starmer for a perceived lack of support for the war after the prime minister initially refused to allow the US to use British bases to strike Iran. He said Britain is seeking a viable collective plan to reopen the strait, adding that it is not easy.
