Trump's Oil Pipeline and Iran's Power
Reports reveal that President Donald Trump is pursuing a strategic project to build a pipeline connecting Iraq and Syria, with the aim of ending Iranian dominance over the Strait of Hormuz. The plan involves reopening the historic oil pipeline (Kirkuk-Baniyas), which spans 500 miles and transports Iraqi oil to the Mediterranean, reducing approximately 3,000 nautical miles of shipping and avoiding navigation through the strait. This would strengthen the influence of energy-exporting countries and pave the way for expanding oil transportation in the region. Although Trump's approach includes incorporating Syria and establishing economic blocs to bolster American influence, Israel is monitoring these moves cautiously due to Turkish influence and the Russian presence in Syria.
