This is clear indication that US is losing in Gulf while the world especially Europe is not willing to repeat its wrong doings like Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan in case of Iran.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;You&#8217;ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the USA won&#8217;t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren&#8217;t there for us,&#8221;\u00a0he writes in a Truth Social post.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pakistani expert Mr. Tazeen Akhtar observed,<\/strong> &#8221; Certainly he is feeling alone in a war he himself started with no legal or ethical ground in a proud mood and mode after committing a crime in Venesuela by forcibly lifting the President and spouse from their bed room.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He said , Mr. Trump has brought shame for US while he was living in a fool&#8217;s paradise like &#8221; I will go, I will see and I will conquer but the scene was 180 degree different from what he had visualised. This state of affairs has further bewildered him because he failed to find any accomplice in this crime against international law and UN Charter.<\/p>\n<p>Tazeen Akhtar said that Trump , after seeing the results from Iran&#8217;s standing and determination , was desperate to shift the responsibility to others and share the burden with Arabs and European allies but they all said No.<\/p>\n<p>Second big disappointment for Trump was Hormuz remained in control of Iran and the oil trade was turned into Chinese currency raising rumors about the downfall of Dollar, Tazeen Akhtar said.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"uCmJnTKA6B\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/multiple-explosions-in-beirut-death-toll-rises-to-1268-10-eu-foreign-ministers-call-on-israel-to-stop-strikes-pm-canada-denounces-illegal-invasion-of-lebanon\/\">Multiple Explosions in Beirut | Death Toll Rises to 1,268 | 10 EU Foreign Ministers Call on Israel to Stop Strikes | PM Canada Denounces &#8220;Illegal Invasion&#8221; of Lebanon<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Multiple Explosions in Beirut | Death Toll Rises to 1,268 | 10 EU Foreign Ministers Call on Israel to Stop Strikes | PM Canada Denounces &#8220;Illegal Invasion&#8221; of Lebanon&#8221; &#8212; Pakistan In the World\" src=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/multiple-explosions-in-beirut-death-toll-rises-to-1268-10-eu-foreign-ministers-call-on-israel-to-stop-strikes-pm-canada-denounces-illegal-invasion-of-lebanon\/embed\/#?secret=1tksvlxWb6#?secret=uCmJnTKA6B\" data-secret=\"uCmJnTKA6B\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><strong>Paul Adams, Diplomatic correspondent of BBC<\/strong> notes it as Increasingly impatient tone of Trump&#8217;s posts suggests he knows he&#8217;s in a bind.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Donald Trump\u2019s insistence that allies, including Britain, should &#8220;go to the Strait, and just take&#8221; Iran\u2019s oil may appeal to some of his more vociferous supporters, but in the midst of a war without an end in sight makes little sense.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Assuming the president does not mean that western partners should take control of Iranian oil \u2013 by seizing tankers or parts of Iran\u2019s oil infrastructure \u2013 then he\u2019s repeating a demand he\u2019s been making for some time: that the time has come for countries to contribute to an escort mission through the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The problem is that few countries believe the president when he says &#8220;the hard part is done&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">No-one is yet ready to challenge Iran\u2019s chokehold over the strait. Not even US warships have done this.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">With the president also saying that negotiations with Iran are going well \u2013 something of which, again, there\u2019s little evidence \u2013 there is no appetite to pre-empt the outcome by mounting a risky military operation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The increasingly impatient tone of Donald Trump\u2019s social media posts (this morning blasting France as &#8220;VERY UNHELPFUL&#8221;) suggests that he knows he\u2019s in a bind.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><strong>Gary O&#8217;Donoghue, Chief North America correspondent of BBC shared ;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Perhaps the most telling moment of Pete Hegseth\u2019s briefing earlier &#8211;\u00a0the first in almost two weeks from the Pentagon, was when the secretary of defence was asked whether opening the Strait of Hormuz was an \u201cessential\u201d objective of the war.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">He could have given a simple yes to that answer, instead he focused on degrading Iran\u2019s missiles, its ability to project power and its nuclear capabilities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Crucially on the strait he said: \u201cit\u2019s not just a US problem set, it\u2019s not just us, other countries should pay attention.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">He said these other countries, meaning Nato &#8211; and including the UK &#8211; should, as he put it, \u201cstart learning to fight for yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The attacks on Nato allies are not surprising.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">What is fascinating here is that it opens up the possibility that the US could declare its objectives met without the free flow of oil and gas reestablished through the strait.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">An indication perhaps that this administration is prepared to settle for something less than complete and utter victory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Criticism of Nato was threaded throughout the briefing. Pete Hegseth took a swipe at Britain\u2019s Royal Navy, reflecting not just his but also the president\u2019s anger that Nato allies and in particular the UK, have not \u201cstepped up\u201d in the way Washington wanted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">So here we are, another inflection point in the transatlantic relationship that threatens to widen an already deep rift.<\/p>\n<header class=\"ssrcss-1gu7x8n-Header e14e9ror5\">\n<h5 class=\"ssrcss-89o2pv-Heading e10rt3ze0\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span class=\"ssrcss-189b1h2-HeadlineWrap e14e9ror2\" role=\"text\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-61901\" src=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Hormuz-Petrol-Shipping-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"318\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Hormuz-Petrol-Shipping-1.jpg 400w, https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Hormuz-Petrol-Shipping-1-300x239.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>Majority of oil shipped through Strait of Hormuz ends up in Asia<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/header>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has slowed down drastically since the beginning of the war last month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Iran, which controls parts of the vital passageway, has restricted which ships can pass through resulting in rising oil prices.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">But the severity of the blockade is not felt uniformly around the world, with countries in Asia being the most impacted by the reduced supply, as the graphic below shows.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The shipping route is not only vital for oil; other energy sources including natural gas pass through this narrow shipping lane.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">About 20% of the world&#8217;s oil and liquefied natural gas usually passes through the strait.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"SV5Yr2Ps7e\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/pakistan-in-the-world-january-2026\/\">Pakistan in the World \u2013 January 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Pakistan in the World \u2013 January 2026&#8221; &#8212; Pakistan In the World\" src=\"https:\/\/pakistanintheworld.pk\/live\/pakistan-in-the-world-january-2026\/embed\/#?secret=zSuYdQWOn9#?secret=SV5Yr2Ps7e\" data-secret=\"SV5Yr2Ps7e\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Middle East Monitoring Desk Islamabad A Desperate President of the most powerful country US, Donald Trump has lost temperament and lashes out at the UK and other countries, telling them to &#8220;go get your own oil&#8221; from the Strait of Hormuz.
