Syria says Iranian oil tankers blocked at Suez Canal if shipment is destined for Syrian port
2019-04-20
[ALMASDARNEWS] Under the sanctions imposed by the U.S. and Great Britain, no Iranian oil tankers are allowed to transit the Suez Canal if they are destined for a Syrian port, a Syrian military source told Al-Masdar News this morning.

The source said Iranian oil tankers are allowed to enter Mediterranean waters if the ship is destined for Turkey; however, due to U.S. and U.K. sanctions, the vessels cannot transit again if they dock at a Syrian port.

#1  ...Why do I have a bad feeling that somebody's going to suddenly find some paperwork that says, "Turkey" on it...?
