White House, analysts split on Strait of Hormuz oil flow; verdict weeks away
Axios·US · IR·about 6 hours ago
South Korea has agreed to send naval and air assets to the Strait of Hormuz, reversing its earlier reluctance, after President Trump canceled a military exercise with Seoul over insufficient support for the Iran conflict. This marks a significant shift in South Korea's defense posture and a concession to U.S. demands, potentially escalating regional tensions. The exact size and timeline of the deployment remain unspecified.
