Thats a nuclear armed nation making a pretty clear position. Will China do the same? India is nominally self sufficient for food, ..........
This
link here suggests that this move by India is a bit more considered than the link quoted by
ORAC suggests - tho that link from
ORAC was v useful to surface knowledge about what other countries are doing so pse keep such posts coming!
Clearly, quite a bit of Indian-Iranian discussion has been had. Interesting all the same, especially if you ask could the RN do the same for British ships?
Oh, I forgot - virtually no RN and even less of a British Merchant fleet these days!
