The Strait of Hormuz is widely recognized…
as an international transit route. That means ships from all nations…
have the right to pass through it. Blocking it…
raises serious legal questions. It could be viewed…
as a violation of international norms. And that matters. Because global leadership…
is not just about power. It’s also about legitimacy. [Pause] Even close allies…
may hesitate to support such a move. Not because they lack loyalty…
but because the risks are simply too high.
