'not be involved'
SUMMARY

The UK will not participate in President Trump's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Trump announced the blockade after failed peace talks with Iran, stating the US navy will interdict vessels that "have paid a toll to Iran." He mentioned that "no one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas."

A UK government spokesman emphasized support for freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz and noted efforts to form a coalition with France to protect trade routes. Meanwhile, UK mine-hunting systems are already deployed in the region.
