U.S. and Britain Schedule London Summit Next Week to Secure Strait of Hormuz Shipping Coalition
The United States and Britain are scheduling a high-level diplomatic session in London next week to organize an international coalition aimed at securing commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a report citing European diplomats and additional sources indicated.
A White House official confirmed the diplomatic effort on Friday, as the meeting's date and agenda remain under negotiation. The session will bring together defense ministers and senior military commanders from Western and regional nations, with Washington seeking allied contributions of de-mining vessels, naval ships and drones to clear the waterway. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine are expected to attend.
