Bahrain proposes UN Security Council resolution authorizing force to protect shipping in Strait of Hormuz
Bahrain is circulating a draft UN Security Council resolution that would authorize member states to use "all necessary means" to protect commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz from Iranian interference. The draft resolution calls Iran's threats and attacks on merchant vessels a threat to international peace and security. Diplomats say the measure is backed by Gulf Arab states and the United States but is unlikely to succeed due to expected opposition from China and Russia.
