EU Joins US 'Operation Economic Outcast' as Seoul Weighs Hormuz Military Role
The European Union has formally joined the US-led 'Operation Economic Outcast,' a sanctions campaign aimed at severing Iran’s access to the global financial system. Simultaneously, South Korea is evaluating military options to support US efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, though no final decision has been made. Washington is intensifying pressure on Tehran through financial isolation and naval blockades, while Tehran and its allies, including China, resist the measures.
