The interviewer noted that British Prime Minister Starmer plans to hold an international diplomatic conference to explore ways to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Vitaker noted that now is the time for real action.
"It's time for frigates to be deployed in the Strait of Hormuz. And after all, as you know, the Europeans have issued many statements over the past month. Some of them run counter to American interests, while others partially support them," the diplomat said.
According to the U.S. ambassador to NATO, the allies must decide whether they support the United States.
"Now is the time to decide whose side you want to be on. Are you on the side of the United States of America? Are you a key ally of the United States of America? Or are you, you know, heading in some other direction? The United States needs clear signs of moral resolve—not just words, but capabilities and actions, because that is what matters," he explained.
