$KAT $ESPORTS $M
Iran’s parliament is drafting legislation to impose tolls on vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz—one of the world’s most critical oil chokepoints—in exchange for "maritime security," according to reports .
What it means:
· Any tanker or cargo ship could be required to pay fees to pass safely
· The strait handles approximately 20% of global oil supply
· Toll collection would add massive costs to global shipping and energy markets
The risk:
Experts warn the move could spike fuel prices, disrupt trade routes, and escalate tensions with the U.S. and allies who view free passage as a matter of international law .
A geopolitical gamble with global consequences. 🌍🔥⛽
