🗣 Strait of Hormuz closure could trigger global economic disaster – expert

🔊 Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz in response to US–Israeli strikes could lead to “an unprecedented global economic catastrophe,” Egyptian expert Mohamed Mehran tells Sputnik.

🔶 The closure may add to halting “the flow of millions of barrels of oil per day” through the strait, which could result in a "mad increase in crude prices to $300 per barrel,” according to Mehra.

🔶 He warns of “catastrophic economic consequences for Europe, Japan, China, South Korea, and India, which rely heavily” on State of Hormuz oil supplies.

🔶 Even a short-term halt in such deliveries could cause “global recession, hyperinflation, and a severe energy crisis, which would hit developing countries the hardest,” Mehran cautions.
