Gulf

ORG Government / Regional Geopolitical Affairs Momentum 8.7 QUIET Primary: Spectral Shift

The Persian Gulf region (population ~50M across GCC states, ~$2T combined GDP) serves as the world's primary oil and liquefied natural gas export hub, transiting 20-25% of global energy supplies. Escalating Iran-US tensions, satellite intelligence of military installations, and blockade operations across the Strait of Hormuz are reshaping regional alliances and energy markets in 2026.
