ABOARD A MILITARY AIRCRAFT (Reuters) - The United States Navy is closely watching Iranian behavior in the Gulf and expects a “period of uncertainty” and increased level of alertness after President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw from an international nuclear deal with Iran, the U.S. Navy chief said on Monday.
Trump said last week that the United States was withdrawing from a 2015 deal negotiated by the Obama administration.
The withdrawal has upset Washington’s European allies, cast uncertainty over global oil supplies and raised the risk of conflict in the Middle East.
=====================================================
I'm glad our Navy is on the alert for possible backlash from Trump's decision. This is a critical stretch of ocean for strategic supplies.
