Impact on Production Capacity and Global Markets
According to Trump, if Iran's oil infrastructure is affected, it won't be easy to fully restore it. He mentioned that even in the event of a restart, production capacity might be limited to about 50%. This would have a direct impact on both Iran's economy and the global oil market. Reports suggest that due to sea blockades and a lack of available ships, it's becoming increasingly difficult for Iran to export its oil. In these circumstances, the oil accumulating in the pipelines is putting additional pressure on the system, which Trump described as a potential technical crisis that could turn serious in the coming days.
