US Vice President J.D. Vance discussed the importance of the American military role in protecting navigation and ensuring the continuous flow of oil and gas through the Strait of Hormuz. He emphasized that delays in confronting Iran could lead to a major global energy crisis. He clarified that ongoing attacks on ships hinder freedom of navigation, threatening to disrupt global oil supplies, as about 20% of the world's energy resources pass through the strait.
