The war in Iran has bad results. The Strait of Hormuz is very important. This is a narrow sea way. Many ships carry oil there. But the way is dangerous. Iran controls this part of the sea. Many ships do not sail there now. This causes a lack of resources.
In Japan, chip bags have a problem. The firm Calbee cannot print colorful bags. They need a part of oil for the colors. The bags are now black and white or gray. In India, the price for gas and diesel rises. Prime Minister Modi tells people to save money. He calls this an act of love for the country.
Saudi Arabia uses a different way now. Thousands of trucks carry fertilizer through the desert. They avoid the sea way this way. The United Arab Emirates plan a new pipeline. This is a long tube for oil. They want to move the oil safely.
Donald Trump and Xi Jinping met in China. They want the war to end soon. But they have no clear plan yet. Russia also joins the talk. Vladimir Putin plans to visit China soon. Russia offers help to Iran for its nuclear program.
Germany wants to help too. Defense Minister Boris Pistorius plans a mission. Navy soldiers shall protect the ships. This happens only after a ceasefire. Then the ships can sail safely through the strait again.
