Why the Strait of Hormuz Matters to India | Oil Chokepoint Explained

Описание: The Strait of Hormuz is the world’s most critical energy chokepoint, and any disruption here can shake global markets.

Recently, amid rising tensions between the us and iran, the indian embassy in tehran has advised indian nationals to leave the country.
This narrow waterway links the oil-rich persian gulf to the arabian sea, carrying nearly 20% of the world’s oil supply and 30% of global lng.

India relies heavily on this route, nearly 50% of its crude oil and 60% of natural gas imports pass through the strait.
That’s why any military escalation could hit energy prices, economies, and everyday goods worldwide.
