Rebeccah Heinrichs: The Allies Now Understand That ‘It’s in Their Interests’ to Get the Strait of Hormuz Opened

‘So I think that interests are going to win the day in the end’

RUSH EXCERPT:

HEINRICHS: “That may be true, Jake, but I‘ll just say that, you know, I‘ve been talking with a lot of the allies lately, and they all understand, though, that it is in their interest to get this straight open very quickly. So I think that interests are going to win the day in the end. I do completely understand why allies are frustrated. They were not brought in. This, of course, comes on the heels of President Trump implicitly and explicitly, at one point threatening Greenland just a couple of months ago. So there‘s a lot of, you know, frustration on the part of the allies. But I do think, look, you‘ve got the U.K. loosening their grip. They‘re going to let the United States use their bases more than they were in the past.”
