The Legal High-Wire Act in the Strait of Hormuz
from Overnights with Phil O'Neil · host Tapt Media
"A blockade is a tool of war as old as the sea itself, but in 2026, the question isn't just about who has the biggest ships—it's about who still respects the law." Donald Rothwell, Professor of International Law at the ANU, joins the show to dissect the US-led blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. With the blockade reaching its 24-hour mark, the world is watching to see if this ancient tactic of naval warfare can still be enforced in a modern, "rogue" geopolitical climate.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
