🚨 Tensions Rising in the Gulf
Abbas Araghchi says the Strait of Hormuz is still open to the world — but **not for the United States, Israel, or their close allies.
Around 20% of the world’s oil normally flows through this narrow route near Iran, making it one of the most critical energy chokepoints on Earth.
Iran’s message is clear: global trade can continue, but its main rivals won’t get a free pass. Many ships are still avoiding the area due to war risks, keeping oil markets on edge.
Simple takeaway: The strait isn’t fully closed — but the geopolitical chess game just got much more intense. 🌍⚠️🛢️
