๐Ÿ—ฃ Strait of Hormuz closure could trigger global economic disaster โ€“ expert

๐Ÿ”Š Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz in response to USโ€“Israeli strikes could lead to โ€œan unprecedented global economic catastrophe,โ€ Egyptian expert Mohamed Mehran tells Sputnik.

๐Ÿ”ถ The closure may add to halting โ€œthe flow of millions of barrels of oil per dayโ€ through the strait, which could result in a "mad increase in crude prices to $300 per barrel,โ€ according to Mehra.

๐Ÿ”ถ He warns of โ€œcatastrophic economic consequences for Europe, Japan, China, South Korea, and India, which rely heavilyโ€ on State of Hormuz oil supplies.

๐Ÿ”ถ Even a short-term halt in such deliveries could cause โ€œglobal recession, hyperinflation, and a severe energy crisis, which would hit developing countries the hardest,โ€ Mehran cautions.
