Tensions are rising as the U.S. moves into a more aggressive phase of the conflict with Iran - and the stakes couldn’t be higher. With military pressure increasing in the Strait of Hormuz, global markets, oil supply, and international alliances are all being pulled into the equation.

In this panel discussion, the conversation explores: The risks behind escalating military action The economic consequences for the rest of the world Whether current decisions are part of a clear strategy - or something more reactive And how global powers are responding as tensions rise As the situation continues to evolve, one thing is clear: the outcome of this conflict won’t just impact the region - it could reshape global stability.
