日本剛剛做了一件其他國家都不願意做的事。
一艘名為「出光丸號」的巨型日本油輪,載著200萬桶沙烏地阿拉伯原油,徑直駛過霍爾木茲海峽。
而且,它得到了伊朗的默許。
數週以來,由於伊朗事實上的封鎖,這條全球最重要的石油咽喉要道一直處於禁區。
川普下令美國海軍擊沉伊朗布雷艦。德黑蘭威脅要進行「反向封鎖」報復。來自世界各地的油輪都被困在原地。
日本沒有等待華盛頓的許可。
它沒有發出威脅。它沒有派遣軍艦。
它拿起電話,達成協議,然後讓它的油輪啟航。
Japan just did what no other country has been willing to do.
A massive Japanese oil tanker — the IDEMITSU MARU — has sailed straight through the Hormuz Strait carrying 2 million barrels of Saudi crude.
And it did it with Iran's blessing.
For weeks, the world's most critical oil chokepoint has been a no-go zone after Iran's de facto blockade.
Trump ordered the US Navy to sink Iranian mine-laying ships. Tehran threatened "reverse blockade" retaliation. Tankers from every flag have been frozen in place.
Japan didn't wait for Washington's permission.
It didn't issue threats. It didn't send warships.
It picked up the phone, made a deal, and got its ship moving.
