BRUSSELS, May 19 (Reuters) – Top NATO commander Alexus Grynkewich said on Tuesday that a potential mission of the military alliance in the strait of Hormuz would be a political decision.
“The conditions under which NATO would consider operating in the Strait of Hormuz are ultimately a political decision,” Grynkewich said, speaking in Brussels where he met with military chiefs from NATO countries.
