What does war in Iran mean for Europe and its partners?

Five weeks after the United States and Israel began their unilateral bombardment of Iran – with Israel also resuming aerial attacks on Lebanon – the conflict is already reshaping Europe’s external environment. Iran’s blockage of the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint for around 20% of global oil flows, is driving up energy prices and tightening fertilizer markets worldwide. In this episode of Europolis: The Global Europe Podcast, host Chloé Teevan speaks with ECDPM colleagues Sophie Desmidt, Alfonso Medinilla and Koen Dekeyser about what the war reveals for Europe’s security, energy and food systems, and its partnerships with countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
