The IRGC reportedly carried out a missile strike on two ships attempting to cross the Strait of Hormuz at night. The IRGC Navy reports that the ships turned off their transponders and were operating in the interests of the US Navy.

The importance of this news is being underestimated. In my opinion it is epoch making. China is apparently telling its refiners to ignore US sanctions and to conduct their business in disregard of them. In other words it is telling them that if the US comes for them because they are violating US sanctions, they have China's back. If that expands to include other Chinese businesses, and sooner or later it surely will, the US sanctions era is over. The US remains an enormous consumer market, but China holds the high cards. It is both the 'workshop of the world' and increasingly its high tech research institute and laboratory, and it is also rapidly becoming a major source of global investment capital. Trading with the US remains profitable and attractive, but not trading with China is not an option, even for the United States. It goes beyond saying that if China opposes US sanctions they become unenforceable. It means that they become impossible, and the whole structure which has been created around them must end. Fyodor Lukyanov, who is very well connected in Moscow, is saying the Chinese are undertaking a review to assess whether the US is, as the Russians say, 'agreement incapable'. If so then this decision points to the outcome. @RnaudBertrand @AXChristoforou @TheGrayzoneNews @RealPepeEscobar @thecyrusjanssen youtube.com/watch?v=PZmepe…
