Romania’s decision to join the coalition of six states in the effort to unblock the Strait of Hormuz is a justified one, says political analyst George Jiglău, given that our country must respect both the strategic partnership and contribute to solving the oil crisis. The Strait of Hormuz, which controls traffic through the Persian Gulf, is a nerve center of geopolitics and global trade, as Iran, amid conflict with the US and Israel, has blocked the passage of ships carrying oil to all areas of the globe. The blockade in the Strait of Hormuz already has disastrous effects on economies,…
