Trump deserves credit for realigning world - The Mining Journal
What happened
Iran's strategy of choking the Strait of Hormuz to pressure the US has failed, with crude exports from the Persian Gulf back at pre-war levels. The US has reimposed a naval blockade on Iran, which has not exported any oil by sea since September. Iran has offered to reopen the Strait in exchange for the release of frozen funds, but the US has refused.
Why it matters
The situation has significant implications for global oil supplies and the stability of the region. The cooperation between Arab allies and Israel in response to Iranian aggression is also a notable development. The US has demonstrated its ability to use its naval power and banking system to pressure Iran.
