“It all comes down to who controls the Strait of Hormuz,” Dalio wrote in a lengthy post on X. If Iran retains the ability to control or even negotiate over who passes through the strait—through which roughly a fifth of the world’s oil supply flows daily—Dalio argues the U.S. will be seen as having lost the war, regardless of how the conflict is resolved.

Report by the tagesschau, translated by me

Van Aken demands sanctions

"If you break international law and abduct a president like Trump did, you are committing vicious state terrorism," party chief of Die Linke, Jan van Aken, told online portal t-online.
