They actually said in this statement today that they were going to act legally, they were going to take legal.

Because in the past, when something like this happened or when, you know, the oil industry was being under attack or affected in some way, people thought, and

因為過去，當發生類似事件，或是石油產業受到攻擊或影響時，人們認為，

it actually translated that way, that they were going to run low on gas, and
