German defence minister rejects Trump's call for military support against Iran
German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius has rejected US President Trump's call for European military support in the war against Iran, questioning what European frigates could accomplish in the Strait of Hormuz that the US Navy cannot. Pistorius stated clearly 'this is not our war' and downplayed fears of NATO collapse over the disagreement. The stance reflects a broader European reluctance to become militarily involved.
