Iran Claims Strait of Hormuz Open to Friends After China Pressure

"Seemingly under intense pressure from China, Iran’s terrorist Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) modified its threats to close the vital Strait of Hormuz to worldwide oil shipping, claiming that it would only attack American, Israeli, and European ships.
Beijing nevertheless ordered its largest oil refiners to halt their exports of diesel and gasoline until further notice.
Iran has long threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz in the event of hostilities. The strait is a narrow passage between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, through which about a fifth of the world’s oil and liquified natural gas (LNG) flows." Breitbart
