Der große japanische Öltanker Idemitsu passiert die Straße von Hormus, ohne Maut an den Iran zu zahlen, mit 2 Millionen Barrel auf dem Weg nach Nagoya

For context, Japan uses over 3 million barrels of oil a day, and there are still 40 Japanese tankers stranded in the strait. But it’s very encouraging that Japan is talking directly to Iran now and that they have allowed passage of this one.

Have they passed the American blockade? 

I’m not sure I believe the „not paying a toll“ bit.

They paid, don’t worry. Just maybe not with the assumed toll, but they paid

OFC they „didnt pay the toll“, otherwise the yanks would be pulling them over as soon as they left the Strait.
