Yhdysvaltain presidentti Donald Trump on esittänyt epäilynsä, tulisivatko Naton jäsenet Amerikan avuksi, jos sitä vastaan ​​hyökättäisiin. Hän on korostanut samalla, että Washington puolustaisi edelleen liittolaisiaan. Samaan aikaan Trump postasi sosiaaliseen mediaan lausunnon, jonka mukaan todellinen uhka Yhdysvalloille on Nato ja YK - ei Kiina ja Venäjä.

Kuten oli heti konfliktin syttymisen päivästä lähtien nähtävissä, eskalaatio tulee olemaan hurjaa ja koko maailman talous on vaarassa. Iran on puolustautunut varoittamallaan tavalla sulkemalla Hormuzinsalmen Persianlahdelle, pysäyttäen tankkerit ja aiheuttaen eskaloituvan energiakriisin sekä energiapulan. Kuten sanoin TOSI TV:ssä tuolloin, Bensiinin ja dieselin säännÜstely ja hintaohjaus olisi pitänyt aloittaa Suomen kaltaisissa maissa välittÜmästi, mutta kuten muissakin kriiseissä on havaittu, valtiomiestaidot puuttuvat globalistihallinnosta.
