Trump joins the list of infamous losers to sign a treaty at Versailles, despite the reopening of the Strait fertiliser flows will likely be slow to rebound and Chinese demand is tanking.
The ink is finally dry. Trump signed the MoU at Versailles much like another one of history’s infamous losers. The humiliation of losing. Cue the Iranian victory laps. Chief negotiator Ghalibaf reckons Iran won more at the table than it ever could have on the battlefield and, remarkably, Trump seems to agree. He conceded that a few more weeks of bombing would never have prised the Strait open or delivered anything you could call success. He even let slip that the US was about four weeks from running its reserves dry, before catching himself and admitting he probably shouldn't have said that…we could say the same for most of what he says. He also admitted the US was running out of bombs.
