JAPAN SNUBS TRUMP: Tokyo Deals With Iran to Secure Oil, Supertanker Passes Hormuz 'Without Toll'

Описание: In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic:
Japan has secured the safe passage of one of its oil supertankers through the Strait of Hormuz following diplomatic talks with Iran, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi confirmed on April 29. The vessel, carrying nearly 2 million barrels of crude, exited the Gulf after weeks of disruption caused by the ongoing US-Iran conflict. The development highlights Tokyo’s reliance on Middle Eastern oil imports and its decision to pursue independent diplomatic engagement despite pressure from US President Donald Trump, who recently criticized allies for not supporting military efforts in the region. Japanese officials said no payment was made for the tanker’s passage, underscoring a negotiated breakthrough in one of the world’s most critical energy chokepoints.
