Drone footage at dusk: the Strait of Hormuz lying flat and metallic, the haze coming off Musandam like smoke off a held cigarette. Then the hulls move. The Yuan Gui Yang and the Ocean Lily — Chinese-flagged, Hong Kong-flagged — clear the chokepoint after sitting at anchor since mid-March. Four million barrels. Two months of waiting. Trump says Iran is "begging." Brent crude hits its 2022 high. The U.N. cuts global growth to 2.5%. Low-income families in developing countries eat the cost first; the U.N. report names them. When an empire pauses, it is not mercy. It is bookkeeping.
