4:09Now PlayingDonald Trump says "numerous countries" are on their way after he called for other nations to help secure the Strait of Hormuz against Iranian attacks.
He said: "We strongly encourage other nations whose economies depend on the Strait far more than ours - we get less than 1% of our oil from the Strait and some countries get much more."
"Japan gets 95%, China gets 90%, many of the Europeans get quite a bit, South Korea gets 35% - so we want them to come and help us with the Strait."
