If implemented, this would set a major precedent. Instead of relying on the existing transit framework, Hormuz becomes a monetized chokepoint. There are dozens of narrow maritime passages worldwide, but only 7 are critical to global trade and energy flows. Are they next?

BREAKING: Iran is demanding a fee of 7% on all commercial ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, with Chinese and Russian vessels exempt from the fee, while Oman is discussing smaller fees of around 3% and the US wants no fees at all, per Reuters and an Iranian source.
A senior Iranian official says the proposed deal gives Iran control over ships entering the Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz, and is "one of the biggest concessions yet to Iran," meaning "the war launched by the United States and Israel in February had resulted in a major shift in the balance of regional power in Tehran's favour."
Another Iranian source however cautions that "the devil is in the details" and that "a single tweet from Trump could cause the whole thing to collapse."

Global economies can’t afford to be held hostage by fossil fuel chokepoints. There is a much more stable and safe route to power our world that is already available: Renewable Energy.
