Cambridge Professor Helen Thompson on the Iran War, Energy Markets and Britain’s Risks
About this episode
Professor Helen Thompson discusses the implications of the US-Israel war with Iran on global energy markets and Britain's energy strategy.
As the US-Israel war with Iran upends global energy flows, Professor Helen Thompson joins Merryn Talks Money to explain what the shock means for oil, gas, supply chains and the wider world economy. They discuss why this may mark the end of any return to “normal” in energy markets, how Asia and Europe could be hit differently, and why Britain’s energy strategy now looks dangerously exposed.
