Interestingly Matt Whittaker, the NATO Ambassador, was on Fox a few minutes ago talking about how China may become part of the "free flow" Multi-National enforcement group.
I'd keep a close eye on the small print if this does come to pass. Would the Chinese really undermine Iran's primary source of leverage in this conflict, without getting some major concessions for both parties?
​​​​​​​I cannot understand why Saudi does not run a pipeline to the Red Sea and bypass it all.
Yup, because a 1200km long pipeline wouldn't be a tempting target.
Earlier today Iranian drones struck Oman’s largest oil storage facilities at the Port of Salalah in Oman.
Weirdly, Salalah was on my long-list of holiday options for this year, having done - and very much enjoyed -Muscat a few years ago.
