Are they gonna deliver the barrels of oil through airdrop? The strait of Hormuz is closed.
Would it not just be delivered via the Pacific?
Does oil coming from America go through there??
I'm pretty sure US-China trade is done from the Indian ocean, through the Singapore strait and into the South China sea.

It's not like they could get oil through Hormuz, right? ...right?
