Trump: Those who need the Strait of Hormuz should unblock it.

The US President stated that the United States has no intention of unblocking the Strait of Hormuz. This either indicates a refusal to launch an amphibious operation on one of the islands in this waterway, or is simply disinformation from Trump.

Donald Trump:

We're not going to unblock it (the strait). The US doesn't need it. Those who do need it are Europe, Korea, Japan, China, and many others. We don't need it. So they'll have to resolve this issue.

Trump went on to say that "at some point Hormuz will open on its own."

President of the U.S.A:

You know, when I started this, I expected something much worse than today. I really thought oil prices would rise dramatically.

This statement suggests that Donald Trump doesn't consider oil prices at $110 per barrel to be all that high. This is despite the fact that, according to the British press, actual oil prices in Southeast Asia are around $170 per barrel. But Trump cares little about Southeast Asia, as he confirmed with his statement that whoever needs to "unblock" the strait should do.

As a reminder, the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed to tankers associated with businesses in the United States, Israel, and several Western countries. However, tankers carrying oil, for example, destined for India and China, pass through the Strait of Hormuz.

Yemen's Houthis, while threatening to close the Bab el-Mandeb Strait (the entrance to the Red Sea), emphasize that the seaway will not be blocked for Russian and Chinese tankers.

Trump of Hormuz. It may soon become clear that the Americans don't need Iran, and those who do need it can deal with it themselves. Israel, for example. And what then?

[Shurik70]

Iran should announce that the US and Israel are under its sanctions and ban maritime trade with them. And do so officially.
After which, sink a couple of tankers moving from the USA to Europe.
I believe that after this, Trump's expectations will be justified, and prices will "really skyrocket."

.And what then?

It's too early. The Arabs haven't paid Trump 2,5 trillion yet to stop the war! If what the "informed Arab journalist from the Gulf" said is true.
Well, if the Arabs agree to continue the war, then they are obliged to pay 5 trillion. This is a good incentive for peace. We must agree.
And then what ?
And then - Trump is the winner again!!
Not only did he start the war , but also FINISHED!!
And besides that, he earned 2,5 trillion dollars in cash for the development of the American economy, for the Golden Dome and no less than the Golden Fleet of battleships.
And who will condemn him then?
Who won't vote for him (the Republicans) in the midterm elections??
- What about Israel?
- And Israel can continue to fight. But Trump started the war, FINISHED it, and has done so at least 9 times already. won.
Oh yeah – he also raised oil prices for his own (American) oil producers. Worldwide. Now they can go back to "drilling, baby, drilling," investing in the Venezuelan oil industry, unsealing new fields, and throwing a Carnival in Cuba.
Israel is against?
The Arabs haven't paid yet either.
So we can fight for another month and then everyone will be happy.

A joke. With a grain of humor. Because the alternative is nuclear escalation.
Following the strike on the Iranian nuclear facility, according to True Promise #4, a strike on Israel's nuclear center in Dimona must follow. After that, Israel will respond with its own nuclear arguments. And Iran will respond with its own.
So the Arabs better hurry. With money. For Trump. For peace. Simply for peace at half the price.
Well, for me the commission is 0,1%, that's enough.
So For peace, Arabs!
Persians simply handsome.
Well, Trump is a good guess. Especially with lifting sanctions on Iranian oil.

Listening to the red-haired pedophile from Epstein's coalition is like not respecting yourself.
I don't rule out some of the vile moves by the Zionists and the Yankees with the goal of setting the entire Middle East on fire in order to cut off oil and gas supplies to Beijing and Southeast Asia, even to the point of striking nuclear facilities, which is already happening with the attack on the Bushehr nuclear power plant.
The IRI leaders warned the Zionists about retaliatory strikes on Dimona, which could be the beginning of the end of the illegally occupied territory of Palestine, according to the erroneous decision of the UN General Assembly in 1947.

So, there's news nearby that the US operation will last 4-6 weeks. How's Europe's strategic oil reserves doing? And what about the GAZ-19?

PS: Operation is operation, but what about repairs?
P.S.: By the way, have you noticed that the US publishes all its negative news on Saturdays when the stock exchange is closed, so that people will sleep on the idea that oil should be at 150, not 200 right away?

[ZhEK-Vodogrey]

Quote: Last centurion

How are things with Europe's strategic oil reserves? And what about the gas?

Russia and its aging Komsomol members won't let their European partners be left without oil and gas. We'll still have to fight them in 2027...

Hitler reassured his generals:

"We have nothing to fear from a British blockade. The East will supply us with grain, livestock, coal, lead, and zinc."

The Führer proved right. Salvation came from Moscow. Germany received large quantities of oil, strategically important raw materials, and food from the Soviet Union. In mid-November 1939, during negotiations in Berlin, the head of the large Soviet economic delegation, People's Commissar of the Shipbuilding Industry Ivan Tevosyan, meaningfully remarked:

“The Soviet government would not agree to supply any country with such large quantities and the types of raw materials that it will supply to Germany.”

Trump is hard to decipher. Oil is nothing, LNG is America's everything. I don't know about Hormuz, but I'm off to drink a Hershey. So, let's clean this up. Europe and England didn't expect such a dirty trick. Now China will turn its attention to Australian LNG and coal. Not a single molecule of hydrocarbons to Europe.

Well, he was so offended... He asked you to come and help... They turned away - clean it up yourselves...

Not a single molecule of hydrocarbons to Europe.

Yesterday, the Russian gas carrier Yakov Gakkel delivered hydrocarbons from the Yamal LNG plant in the port of Sabetta to the French port of Saint-Nazaire for enlightened Europe.
Moreover, no one stormed or arrested the gas tanker.

[Coconut Tima]

"We don't need him." The fable immediately came to mind.

[Ross xnumx]

This is either a refusal to carry out a landing operation on one of the islands in this waterway, or disinformation from Trump.

Most likely, this is ordinary disinformation - a method of calming the enemy: sometimes he negotiates, sometimes he makes loud statements that he does not intend to fight.

[Vladimir M]

The US President stated that the United States does not intend to unblock the Strait of Hormuz.

But Doni is right, the US even benefits from closing the strait.

[Vladimir Vladimirovich Vorontsov]

❝ Trump then stated that "at some point Hormuz will open itself" ❞ —

— "Open up, Hormuz!" - No, it won't work that way...

[novel66]

Well, maybe we should try "Krex Pex Fex"

[Vicente]

Essentially, a redistribution of global influence is currently underway in the Middle East in terms of non-oil and gas production and supply logistics. Before the unrest, the United States wielded considerable influence over the Gulf Arab monarchies, these champions of the global oil and gas market. The US Navy's expensive and magnificent, world-leading air defense systems, numerous radars, warships, and strike groups were a guarantee of this, not only in the eyes of the Arabs. However, it suddenly turned out that all these expensive American military assets, used for actual combat operations against the army of a country that has been under US sanctions for 47 years, are ineffective. Unblock the strait yourself if you need to, but why should we? Do you think anything different will happen with Ukraine?

[Vladimir M]

Right now, Doni could gain complete control over the Gulf monarchies, as they've become too "independent." He'll "transfer" them to camels.
And it will gain additional leverage over Europe, Japan, South Korea...

[Vicente]

How can Donald gain greater control when the Arabs see that the US is powerless to protect them, let alone themselves? The normal operation of the Gulf's oil and gas industry is currently beyond the US's control. Washington has said bluntly: "Who cares?" "You unblock the strait."

[Vladimir M]

This is how Doni is trying to ensure that there is no “normal operation of the oil and gas industry throughout the Gulf.”

[Vicente]

And does this suit the Gulf monarchies? Does this correspond to their dreams for the future of their countries?

[Vladimir M]

Who cares about "monarchy dreams?" Doni, or whoever stands behind him, decided it was time to switch to camels.

[Vicente]

But wouldn't it be logical for these monarchies to find other patrons who can truly protect them and won't hinder the fulfillment of their dreams? It might not be one entity, but several.

[Egoza]

Quote: Vicente

But wouldn't it be logical for these monarchies to find other patrons who can truly protect them and won't hinder the fulfillment of their dreams?

In fact, one high-ranking UAE official said, "We've given a lot of money to Trump's son-in-law and the US, but they're still bombing us." So, it's time for them all to consider whether it's time to change their patrons.

[Mouse]

So Trump is a fraud...
He took the money and relieved himself of all obligations...

Romario,

[novel66]

Who, for example? Well, only China, but they don't want to get involved with anyone at all. And unblocking it would be as easy as pie—get out of there.

[Vladimir M]

And who in the modern world can claim the role of "defender of monarchies"? There are none now...

[Vicente]

So, there's nothing perfect in the world...one thing is for sure: change awaits the men in sandals, in any case, and this can no longer be changed, now they stand at a fork in the road...

[Plate]

Quote: Vicente

But wouldn't it be logical for these monarchies to find other patrons who can truly protect them and won't hinder the fulfillment of their dreams? It might not be one entity, but several.

And who could fulfill such a role? Russia? Yeah, I believe it. They don't have the strength or the technology. China? Well, technically they could, but in reality, they've never done anything like this, and who knows how they'd handle such a situation. Europe? It seems they don't have much agency at all. So it turns out that the Gulf states have no other global security provider besides the United States.
An agreement could have been reached with a regional player—Turkey. But the Turks turned out to be no more cunning than the Jews. India is another option. But it, too, has never been known to export security.

Qatar and its LNG are a lost cause. Now Trump has it easy with his $18 billion Alaska LNG mega-project, so there's no point in messing around. This is especially true for Japan, South Korea, and the European Chubais in a skirt. Whoever gives the most money gets the slippers (the LNG tanker). And I suspect the countries of Southeast Asia will be the ones buying it up.

[Nemo70]

Yes, Andrey, whatever you say, even if the US flees the Middle East, it will still be in the black. They'll reduce their 40 trillion debt by several times!!! Now everyone will be buying their gas and oil. And Russia, well, let's give them Donbass, but with the condition of worse sanctions. That's where it's all heading.

[Ruslan Golota]

I think you're slightly off on the amount. Probably an order of magnitude. As for the implementation timeline, considering it's just bare tundra... 8-10 years. A lot can happen in that time. It's possible no one will need the gas.

[Nemo70]

Quote: Ruslan Golota

[LeutnantTom]

Whatever Trump says, the main thing is that the Strait of Hormuz remains closed for as long as possible.
For Zelensky and his EU "partners," continuing the war against Russia will become more difficult.
No gas from Russia, no gas from Qatar; LNG tankers prefer to sail to Asia. Just look at the EU's gas and oil storage facilities!

No gas - no electricity.

No electricity means no production, for example, of military products.

There is also a lack of nitrogen fertilizers, which means a poor harvest with subsequent increases in food prices and famine in third countries.

It's strange that Donald would just give away the Strait of Hormuz to anyone (come whoever wants and liberate Hormuz, that is, take possession of it), instead of carrying out, in his own manner, a brilliant, beautiful combination of selling the Strait of Hormuz (at least to the same China for a trillion dollars).

Analysts have already analyzed the situation: Israel has never fought for long, a maximum of 32 days, and then by the end of the first month of the war, everything was bad in their society; the Jews have no positional depth even for a very medium-term war.

It seems that after October 23rd, the Jews carried out an operation in Gaza for more than a year.

It's not a given that they'll all be the same. It's unclear how tightly the notorious American Jewish lobby has a grip on the redhead's genitals. And for Trump himself, leaving the region without a more or less obvious victory would be fatal. The Democrats and their hawks will devour him.

No, no, you missed it.
