President Donald Trump is asking other countries to help make the Strait of Hormuz safe for ships. This narrow waterway is a key route for oil transportation.
The current conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran has caused worries about stability in the region and the world's oil supply.
There are no solid promises of help from other countries yet, even though the US is pushing for support.
The Strait of Hormuz is a very important passage for global trade, especially for oil moving from the Middle East.
The ongoing tensions have added to economic worries around the world.
Further details about the specific support requested and potential commitments are not yet public.
