Scott Ritter: Trump’s Hormuz Blockade Plan EXPOSED | Iran, China, Russia & Ukraine War Analysis

Military analyst Scott Ritter breaks down President Donald Trump's proposal to make the United States the "guardian" of the Strait of Hormuz and enforce a blockade against Iran. Ritter argues that the U.S. lacks the military resources and ammunition to sustain such an operation, calling it a high-risk strategy aimed at pressuring China and Russia to force Iran into negotiations.

The discussion also examines the latest developments in the Ukraine war, where Ritter challenges Western narratives, claiming Russia is steadily gaining the upper hand through advanced drone warfare while continued promises of new Western weapons offer Ukraine little chance of reversing the conflict.

This in-depth geopolitical analysis explores the strategic realities behind the Hormuz Strait, U.S. foreign policy, Iran, Russia, China, the Ukraine conflict, and the shifting global balance of power.
