Alam Saleh, a lecturer at the Australian National University, said NATO is unlikely to participate in any U.S.-led operation in the Strait of Hormuz despite pressure from President Trump. He said Iran treats a war as existential and has so far deterred open conflict. Saleh added NATO is fundamentally a defensive, regionally focused alliance whose collective-security remit is limited; joining U.S. action in Hormuz would require it to adopt an offensive, global role — a transformation he called unrealistic.

July 8 — Pang Yaping, board member and managing director and head of index R&D at E Fund Management, said China now has nearly 1,600 ETFs since the first in 2004, with aggregate AUM about 6 trillion yuan at the start of the year. ETF penetration of the Chinese equity market is roughly 2.4%, versus about 24% in the US and ~25% in Europe, implying substantial upside. Product types have diversified—broad-market, sector/theme, style/factor, cross‑border and commodity ETFs—and participation from medium- and long-term investors is increasing. Pang flagged pronounced product homogeneity among the ~1,600 ETFs and urged a shift from scale-driven expansion to stronger operational capability, global allocation and active-passive integration. He said index investing’s purpose is to lower investment difficulty and called for continued focus on refined operations, product innovation and investor services to drive quality over quantity.
