Is Iran losing its leverage over the Strait of Hormuz?
Original: ‘Economic war’: Is Iran losing its leverage over the Strait of Hormuz?
Al Jazeera examines whether Iran's influence over the Strait of Hormuz, the chokepoint for a large share of the world's oil shipments, is weakening amid what analysts describe as an 'economic war'. The question has drawn attention to Iran's options for pressuring global energy markets and how regional tensions and sanctions may be eroding that leverage.
Why now: Rising regional tensions and sanctions have renewed debate over whether Iran can still threaten the world's most important oil shipping lane.
