Tensions in the Persian Gulf continue to escalate and have brought the Strait of Hormuz back to the center of global maritime transport attention. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has stated that it may allow safe passage for ships belonging to Arab or European countries that decide to expel the ambassadors of the United States and Israel.
The statement comes at a time when maritime traffic in the region faces severe constraints. The Strait of Hormuz, one of the planet's most strategically important maritime passages, is responsible for the circulation of roughly one-fifth of the world's oil consumption. Any threat or disruption to this route has an immediate impact on energy markets and global trade.
According to information released in recent hours, military pressure and threats from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps are causing a sharp decline in maritime traffic, with several shipping companies and operators avoiding the zone or reassessing routes. The instability is already reflected in international markets, with the price of oil surpassing the $100 per barrel mark, a direct reaction to the risk of interruption in the energy flow from the Gulf.
For the global maritime and energy sector, the Strait of Hormuz thus reasserts itself as one of the most sensitive points in contemporary geopolitics, where any military escalation can have immediate consequences for logistics chains and worldwide energy supply.
