President Trump lashed out at close European allies Tuesday, telling countries that have been sitting out the Iran campaign and are now struggling to access fuel through the blocked Strait of Hormuz to go secure their own oil — without American help.

In a pair of Truth Social posts, Trump singled out the United Kingdom and France by name, castigating both nations for declining to join the US-Israeli military operation against Iran and warning that Washington would not forget.

“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you,” Trump wrote. “Number 1, buy from the US, we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT.”

“You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the USA won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us,” he continued. “Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil!”

France drew separate criticism over its refusal to allow American military aircraft to cross its airspace. “The Country of France wouldn’t let planes headed to Israel, loaded up with military supplies, fly over French territory,” Trump wrote. “France has been VERY UNHELPFUL with respect to the ‘Butcher of Iran,’ who has been successfully eliminated! The USA will REMEMBER!!!”

Iran shut down the Strait of Hormuz in retaliation for the US-Israeli assault, cutting off one of the world’s most critical oil and gas shipping lanes and triggering fuel shortages and price spikes globally. Several tankers attempting to navigate the route have been attacked by Iranian forces.

Trump’s frustration with NATO allies over the conflict has been building publicly. Last week, speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump said the alliance was “making a very foolish mistake” by staying on the sidelines. “I wonder whether or not NATO would ever be there for us,” he said. “This was a great test, because we don’t need them — but they should have been there.”
