In response to US President Donald Trump’s call to ensure the security of the Strait of Hormuz, Australia has made it clear that it will not send any warships to the region. Australian Transport Minister Catherine King clarified the government’s position in an interview with ABC Radio. She said that they have no plans to send warships at the moment and that they have not received any such request.
\nMinister Catherine King said that Australia’s role and support in the region is very specific. Currently, they are providing defense assistance to the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Especially considering the presence of a large number of Australian citizens in the region, they are being provided with necessary air support for their security. However, she ruled out the possibility of directly deploying any military ships to the Strait of Hormuz.
\nAustralia’s decision comes at a time when the United States is seeking international cooperation to keep one of the world’s most important waterways open. Earlier, Japan also announced that it would not send its warships to the region. As a result, Trump’s initiative to build an international military coalition to secure the Strait of Hormuz now faces a new challenge.<\/p>\n
