[US Israel attack on Iran triggers shipping interruption] On the evening of February 28th local time, the attack by the United States and Israel on Iran caused a sudden halt to shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, and multiple super tankers heading to the Persian Gulf had their routes interrupted. Professor Wan Zhe from Beijing Normal University pointed out that geopolitical risks are the core driving force behind the short-term surge in oil prices. From a long-term perspective, the ongoing conflicts in recent years have continuously exposed the fragility of the global energy supply chain. According to expert analysis, this situation may prompt countries to further strengthen their energy independence strategies, accelerate their layout in areas such as grid independence, distributed energy, and hydrogen energy, and thus promote the overall process of global energy transformation in complex changes.Editor/Yang Meiling
