Iran supreme leader's advisor: Iran not afraid of maritime blockade

Odaily reported that Mukhber, an advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader, posted on social media on the 30th stating that Iran controls the lifeline of global oil and gas transportation and is not afraid of maritime blockades. He said, "When we control the transportation channels for 20% of the world's oil and over 18 trillion cubic meters of natural gas, a maritime blockade will not send Iran back to the Stone Age, but it will certainly plunge the hegemonic regime into an Ice Age."
