[Besent: The blockade will continue until Iran restores pre-war freedom of navigation] Reported by Golden Finance, on May 1, U.S. Treasury Secretary Besent posted on the X platform, stating that rats in the sewer pipes find it difficult to understand what is happening in the outside world. Here are some 'realistic snapshots' provided for Iran's leadership—after all, they are indeed in the darkness of information isolation: 1. The United States has fully controlled the Strait of Hormuz. 2. There is a shortage of hard currency (i.e., U.S. dollars). 3. Food and gasoline are now rationed. 4. The entire international community has turned against you. 5. The blockade will continue until freedom of navigation prior to February 27 is restored.
