I think this blockade hurts them. It also hurts us. And so gas is at an all time high here in the United States and well, it was higher in 2022, I think. The New York Times had an article just the other day saying that this is the highest point we've had for the price of oil in several years. And it's part of why the gas price has not come up is because this is a lagging indicator, right, because there's so much oil that's still circulating that we haven't gotten even to some of the impacts of this blockade.
