'Tsunami effect': Hormuz blockade impacts global supply chains, developing countries curtail imports

From the creator

With oil prices surging past $126 per barrel, Nadia Massih is joined by Amena Bakr, Head of Middle East Energy & OPEC+ Insights at Kpler in Dubai. The Hormuz blockade, she argues, exposes the fragility of global energy systems far more than political signalling ever could. Her warning extends beyond price volatility. She describes the broader economic repercussions as a “tsunami effect,” highlighting how supply chain disruptions and energy shortages ripple outward, particularly impacting import-dependent economies in Asia and vulnerable developing nations already curtailing consumption. #Oilprices #Iran #US 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: https://f24.my/YTen 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: https://f24.my/YTliveEN 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: https://www.france24.com/en/ Like us on Facebook: https://f24.my/FBen Follow us on X: https://f24.my/Xen Bluesky: https://f24.my/BSen and Threads: https://f24.my/THen Browse the news in pictures on Instagram: https://f24.my/IGen Discover our TikTok videos: https://f24.my/TKen Get the latest top stories on Telegram: https://f24.my/TGen
