US media: Iran wants to allow some oil tankers to pass through the strait, on the condition that oil is settled in RMB!
On March 14, CNN reported: "The situation in the Middle East remains tense, with near-stagnation of passage through the Strait of Hormuz, and global energy supply facing great pressure. Iran is considering opening the strait under certain conditions, proposing that oil trade be settled in RMB, breaking the dollar's dominant position. The U.S. previous decision underestimated regional risks, leading to blocked waterways and rising oil prices. The United Nations has also warned that it will severely affect the transport of humanitarian supplies. As the lifeline of global energy, the strait's every move affects the world economy. The intensifying great power rivalry and changes in the financial structure have led to continuous rising risks in the region and globally."
[Witty] When the Strait of Hormuz becomes tense, the whole world's heart races. Historically, the ship attack war during the Iran-Iraq War caused a sharp rise in oil prices. Now, when the shipping route tightens, the impact is more direct and widespread. The U.S. increasing troops and adjusting defense measures, temporarily easing energy restrictions, appears tough but is actually a passive adjustment in response to the crisis. Iran promoting RMB settlement is not only a means of negotiation, but also a signal of the global currency structure moving towards diversification. Unilateral pressure and military confrontation are never solutions, as they only make supply chains more vulnerable and increase the cost of people's livelihoods. At this moment, the world needs cooling dialogue, stable routes, and ensuring global energy security. A little more restraint from major powers can reduce the risk for the world, and peace and cooperation are the true stabilizers.
