Iran Israel War: UK Hosts 35-Nation Talks To Reopen Strait Of Hormuz | Israel Iran War
UK Leads Global Push to Reopen Strait of Hormuz: 35 Nations Convene
Britain is spearheading a massive international effort to restore global trade as it hosts a high-stakes meeting with 35 countries on Thursday, April 2, 2026. Chaired by Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper, the virtual summit aims to form a coalition to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which has been effectively shut down by Iran in retaliation for U.S.-Israeli strikes. With a fifth of the world’s oil consumption and a third of global fertilizer supplies currently blocked, the closure has sent energy and food markets into a tailspin.
The meeting follows a dramatic address by President Donald Trump, who stated that securing the vital waterway is a problem for other nations to resolve, urging them to “build up some delayed courage” and “just grab it.” Consequently, the United States is notably absent from these talks. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has emphasized that the mission will not be easy, involving a two-phase plan: first, clearing the strait of sea mines, followed by a coordinated military effort to protect tankers. Key participants include France, Germany, Japan, Canada, and the UAE, all seeking a “united front” to protect their national interests and global economic stability.
