The speakers also highlighted the uneven impact of the crisis on economies across different countries.
At the regional level, the discussion addressed the implications of the crisis for the Arab world in both the short and medium term, as well as the options available to countries in the region amid the economic realities imposed by the closure of the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz, which plays a critical role in both the global economy and the economies of the region.
In the final segment of the session, the focus shifted to the potential impact of the conflict on the Jordanian economy and the measures required to mitigate its effects and ensure that the country navigates the crisis with minimal economic costs.
The session concluded with an engaging question-and-answer segment, during which students interacted actively with the speakers in a positive and stimulating atmosphere. The discussion underscored the importance of sustaining such activities, which contribute to enhancing students’ analytical capabilities and enabling them to better understand and engage with global developments in ways that complement their academic specializations.
