The US plans to seize Iranian oil
Washington has announced its intention to fully seize Iranian oil and thereby deprive Tehran of its main source of income. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
Jarrod Eigen, director of the National Council on Energy Dominance in the United States, provided this information through Fox News. Responding to journalists' questions about how conflicts in the Middle East might affect oil prices, Eigen emphasized that there is no need to worry about the problems in the Strait of Hormuz.
According to him, the US plans to seize all oil from the Iranian leadership. During this week, Iran declared the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most important oil transit routes, effectively closed.
This ban applied to all types of vessels, including commercial and oil-carrying tankers. As a result, movement in this strategically important corridor has almost stopped, and some ships have become targets of missile strikes.
According to industry experts, the struggle to control oil flows has become a major part of geopolitical conflicts in the region. Any disruption in oil exports from the Persian Gulf will undoubtedly have a serious impact on global energy markets and fuel prices.
