Show Notes
Irans Strait of Hormuz blockade has led to a 90% drop in traffic, causing a severe energy crisis. The country has established a safe lane for ships, requiring clearance and escorts, with some nations paying fees. This setup is particularly impacting Southeast Asia, while China, India, Pakistan, and Iraq have secured direct deals for safe passage. Irans parliament has passed a bill to make these tolls official, and while Trump hints at U.S. troop withdrawal, Irans foreign minister denies any real talks. The situation remains uncertain as Iran profits from global oil flows while the world seeks workarounds.
