Rightio.
Yeah.
Now we've got some questions from people.
What have we got?
Our first question is from David Kinden who says, let me get this straight.
Trump is unhappy that Iran has blocked the Straits, so unhappy that he intends to block them himself.
Is that correct?
Correct.
Yep.
Next.
Yes, that's correct.
Yes, which kind of leads to the next question from Mish, who says, my understanding is that Chinese flag flying tankers have transited the strait already and there are more to come.
US plans to blockade these tankers in international waters.
How will they board them?
And how do they expect China to respond?
Or haven't they thought that far ahead?
So China, as you say, is one of the countries that has been allowed to have a kind of limited supply of oil coming through.
I mean, I guess we'll see how this blockade from the US goes.
But yes, technically, it means that China's ships...
could be blocked from coming through the Strait as well.
