Trump threatens to ‘blow up’ Gulf ally

The president suggested that the US would attack Oman if it seeks to control the Strait of Hormuz

[IMG: Trump threatens to ‘blow up’ Gulf ally]
Muscat, Oman. ©  Tuul & Bruno Morandi / Getty ImagesPresident Donald Trump has suggested that the US would attack its ally Oman if it attempts to seize control of the Strait of Hormuz, which has effectively been closed since the US and Israel launched attacks against Iran in February.According to Reuters, Trump made the remarks after Iranian state TV reported that it obtained an unofficial draft agreement that would reopen the vital waterway, with Iran and Oman jointly managing maritime traffic.“No, the strait is going to be open to everybody,” Trump told journalists during a cabinet meeting on Wednesday. “We’ll watch over it, but nobody’s going to control it. That’s part of the negotiation that we have.”

The UAE is slipping closer to direct war with Iran

“It’s international waters. And Oman will behave just like everybody else, or we’ll have to blow them up. They understand that. They’ll be fine,” Trump said.Oman, a key US ally, mediated talks on Iran’s nuclear program until they were suspended by the conflict.Iran and Oman lie on opposite sides of the narrowest part of the Strait of Hormuz, which normally handles around 25% of global seaborne oil trade and 20% of liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipments.Iran closed the route to ships from “hostile nations” following the US-Israeli airstrikes, while the US declared its own blockade of Iranian ports in April. Tehran has since insisted on its “sovereign right” to manage traffic through the strait and collect tolls.Iran’s peace terms reportedly include demands for reparations, the withdrawal of US troops from the region, and an end to Israel’s wars in Lebanon and Gaza. The US has demanded that Iran completely dismantle its nuclear program, which Tehran insists is entirely peaceful.

Zelensky names commando unit after WWII Nazi collaborators

The Ukrainian leader honored the Ukrainian Insurgent Army, which was responsible for massacres of Polish civilians in the 1940s
Published 27 May, 2026 23:01
| Updated 28 May, 2026 05:15
[IMG: Ukraine]
FILE PHOTO: Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky. ©  Global Look Press / Ukrainian presidential officeUkrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky has renamed an elite commando unit, adding a dedication to World War II-era nationalist paramilitaries responsible for the massacres of Poles and Jews.According to a decree signed on Tuesday, the Special Operations Center North will bear the honorary title ‘Heroes of the UPA’, referring to the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), the military wing of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN). The change reflects “the revival of the historic traditions of the national army,” the document said.The OUN sought to establish an ethnically and religiously homogeneous Ukrainian state and collaborated with Nazi Germany during the early stages of the invasion of the Soviet Union. The UPA was formed in 1942 following a split between much of the OUN leadership and the Germans. Its leaders included Roman Shukhevich, a former deputy commander of the Nazi-led Nachtigall Battalion.

Ukrainian nationalists played a major role in the 1941 Lviv pogrom, and from 1943-44, killed around 100,000 Polish civilians in what is now western Ukraine. The massacres remain a point of contention between modern-day Poland and Ukraine, and have fueled diplomatic tensions, as Ukrainian officials and activists have at times downplayed or justified the atrocities committed by the UPA.Nationalists and UPA veterans, including Shukhevich and OUN leader Stepan Bandera, are officially celebrated in Ukraine as freedom fighters. Streets have been named after them, and commemorative events are held in their honor, including torchlit marches on January 1, Bandera’s birthday.In February 2026, the head of the Ukrainian Institute of National Remembrance, Aleksandr Alferov, who previously served as a spokesman for the neo-Nazi Azov unit, dismissed the massacres of Poles as a “myth,” prompting outrage in Warsaw.Earlier this week, the Ukrainian authorities reburied the remains of one of the OUN leaders, Andrey Melnik, after repatriating them from Luxembourg. Zelensky attended the ceremony.Russia has long accused Ukraine of glorifying Nazi collaborators. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov called the practice “very dangerous for Europe.”
