Pakistan inflation could cross 7 percent if Middle East war pushes oil to $130, economists warn
KARACHI: Pakistan’s fragile economic recovery could face renewed inflationary pressure if global oil prices surge to $130 per barrel amid the escalating Middle East conflict, economists and industry stakeholders warned this week. The warning comes after crude prices briefly spiked above $110 per barrel following hostilities involving the United States, Israel and Iran, raising fears of disruptions to energy shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic waterway that carries roughly one-fifth of the world’s oil supply.
