Maritime Stability of Strait of Hormuz: A Critical Analysis
Energy commerce is crucial for both developed and developing nations due to the rising need for energy worldwide. Energy may be transported economically and environmentally via maritime routes, particularly those that cross the Strait of Hormuz. The only marine route for exporting to Europe, Asia, Africa, and major powers is the Persian Gulf, which is home to enormous oil and gas deposits. Because of its strategic importance, any disruption like an Iranian blockade could have a significant effect on the blue economy worldwide. Europe's dependence on Middle Eastern oil has increased as a result of the recent conflict between Russia and Ukraine. During diplomatic problems involving Iran and other significant exporters, the strait attracts international attention. This study looks at how the Strait of Hormuz affects Iran's foreign policy and ties with other countries, as well as its topographical, strategic, economic, and geopolitical significance.
