Germany has rejected an appeal from US President Donald Trump to help secure the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz, signalling widening fractures among Western allies as tensions with Iran threaten global energy supplies. Berlin's refusal reflects deepening concern across Europe that the escalating conflict between the United States, Israel and Iran could spiral into a prolonged regional war with severe economic and security consequences. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz warned that there is 'clearly no joint plan' to end the fighting, cautioning that a drawn-out conflict could destabilise the Middle East and disrupt one of the world's most critical oil routes.
