A US naval blockade has cut Iran's oil exports to a trickle and pushed inflation near 90%, but may not force Tehran to concede, Capital Economics argued on October 27.
Tracking estimates put Iran's seaborne crude exports at around 50,000 barrels a day (b/d) in both August and September, against 1.5mn-2.0mn b/d before the war, wrote Jason Tuvey, deputy chief emerging markets economist at the London-based consultancy.

Marxists have rebranded. When you hear “stakeholder capitalism”, you are really hearing “marxism”.
When you hear “mutual aid”, you are hearing “marxism”.
When you hear “public-private partnership”, you are hearing “marxism”.
When you hear “racism” you are hearing “marxism”.
When you hear “mass migration”, you are hearing “marxism” & “globalism”.
When you hear “Islamaphobia” you are hearing “marxism”, “jihad”& globalism”.
Do you get it now?
