13:33Now PlayingThree weeks into the Iran war, Trump is calling on other countries to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz – a waterway used every day to move 20 percent of oil sold on the global market. Reopening the strait would mean pushing back the Iranian military and repelling any attacks. It would mean getting involved in the war.
