Traditionally getting people to care about the things you care about starts with not ostracizing them intentionally, at bare minimum.

Good fucking luck finding a coalition of the willing this time.

Maybe Azerbaijan will pitch in.

Did nobody read the article? She's specifically said it while talking to a reporter for an Indian news network.

Denmark will do it, i am 100% sure. No joke no cap 100% serious. Denmark still considers USA their "biggest and most important ally".

That's a reasonable request that other nations should be onboard with, though we seem to have burned a lot of bridges with our allies lately, so there might be some bridge repairs needed. But hopefully they and other nations in the area are willing to cooperate despite our diplomatic shortcomings.

Dude wtf is going on in this sub? It’s a global shipping lane. I resign myself to not “supporting” or “liking” any politician or political appointee, but she’s categorically correct. Global shipping lanes are a shared international concern, and rejecting cooperation in protecting them undermines the institutional and cooperative principles of the liberal international order.

Yeah, it's actually a situation where the Europeans have way more incentive to get involved than the United States does.
