In this Wednesday update, Susan Kokinda argues that President Trump has openly ruptured with the UK over Iran, base access, and broader British policies on energy and immigration, while treating Germany under Chancellor Friedrich Merz as a more reliable partner and moving to cut trade with Spain over NATO and base issues. She says Britain blocked US use of Diego Garcia and other RAF bases for initial strikes, prompting Trump’s public criticism. Kokinda frames Lloyd’s of London’s decision to cancel war-risk coverage for Gulf shipping as a weapon of British imperial power, and highlights Trump’s response: directing the US Development Finance Corporation to provide political risk insurance and putting the Navy on notice to escort tankers through the Strait of Hormuz. She adds that Iranian strikes on Gulf neighbors pushed GCC states into condemning Iran and aligning more closely with the US.
Breaking the grip of the BRITISH imperial power off of the Middle East… AND Germany.
The UK’s gov’t is being spotlighted. Windmills, deindustrialization, mass immigration…
Bessant is stopping all trade with Spain.
Ship insurers canceled insurance for tankers… which would have broken the global insurance market, especially Lloyd’s of London. Trump destroyed this…
The royals have been pushing the green energy movement globally.
IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND.
