It was $80/bbl before Trump’s war began.

Turkey, a member of the EU, has also been allowed to move ships through the strait.

Iran says the strait is open to “everyone” except the US, Israel, and “their allies” (whatever that means).

Do you have a current link (as in today) to support your claim of the $2 million per vessel charge?

Not true. Oil prices were in the $60's for most of the year -- with two very short exceptions where KPN 12 hrs ago #21
