The Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:
"Egypt charges hundreds of thousands of dollars for every passage through the Suez Canal, with fees exceeding one million dollars for large container ships and tankers. Turkey imposes transit fees for vessels passing through the Bosphorus Strait. Canada charges fees for the St. Lawrence Seaway. Panama collects hundreds of thousands of dollars per transit, reaching up to 500,000 dollars for large Neo-Panamax vessels. The United States also charges fees related to the St. Lawrence Seaway.
Yet when Iran keeps the Strait of Hormuz open for free passage for decades, without imposing any transit fees, despite facing sanctions, isolation, and relentless accusations, it is portrayed as the problem.
Isn’t it hypocritical to condemn Iran while ignoring the fact that many other countries profit from controlling vital waterways? And you still expect me to believe that Iran is the ‘bad guy’ here?"

A video has resurfaced of an OCS running to hide inside the KICC after teargassing wananchi. The Nairobi Senator followed him to ask why he was attacking innocent Kenyans.

لولا وجود منصات مثل X لما وصلت هذه المشاهد للعالم
فضحهم واجب على كل حُر حول العالم.
Kenyan police allowed Arsenal fans to gather and disperse peacefully but they never allow the same youth to protest against the government without killing some
I wish the energy on Nairobi streets today was for Missing Kids, Fuel Prices, or rejecting Finance Bill 2026.
But nah, We have dances for colonial football.
Our priorities are misplaced as a country.
Yesterday evening my tenant who works at a butcher gave me a letter from her workplace that the butchery will be closed for sometime and asked if she could pay half rent this month, I consulted my wife and we decided to exempt her from paying rent for as long as FMD is a threat to this nation and she goes back to work. Let us be kind to each other, the last 2 years have been really heavy on us 😔🙏🏽
İstail ordusunun Filistinli çocukları kaçırıp bir bilinmeze sürüklemelerine sessiz kalamayız.

Bu konuda dünyayı harekete geçirecek önemli bir karar alınmalı!

🔸The entire continent must learn from Botswana.
1. Power is transferred in a peaceful, orderly manner.
2. The former liberation movement does not persecute the people, kill freedoms or abduct citizens who oppose it. When they lose elections, they leave.
3. It is not a crime to oppose Govt.
4. They have many former presidents and they are widely respected.
5. Former leaders become statesmen and are buried in a dignified manner. It is a state occasion that brings the whole nation together.
We need new leaders.🇿🇼
Thank you for your service. Thank you for your courage. Thank you for choosing life when fear threatened to prevail. Thank you for showing us that public life can still be honourable.
This is Erick Shieni lying at the Parliament gate.
Do not shame him , he is watching.
We will never forget.
Do not stay silent out of fear.
Fuel prices must come down.
