US Navy stops Iran from seizing two oil tankers in Gulf of Oman
FOX NewsAPR 2023
Thankfully, the US Navy was able to thwart yet another one of Iran’s attempts to illegally seize oil tankers from international waters. Iran sent warships after the two vessels and even fired at them as it continues to defy international law. The threat of Iran is rising to an all-time high, and the Iranian Navy’s efforts to attack oil-carrying vessels are a perfect example. The US Navy will prevent these incidents.
Washington continues to provoke tensions with Tehran as it seizes Iranian oil vessels as part of its retaliation against Iran’s nuclear program. In addition to defying international maritime law, the US is also making an already-volatile oil market even more shaky. The US acts like it is above international rules, and that it has a right to take what does not belong to it. The US is the clear aggressor and must respect Iran’s sovereignty.
