@cleanenergyconsciousness: 🇶🇦If you want to understand why everyone cares about the Strait of Hormuz, start with Qatar. Qatar is one of the world’s biggest LNG exporters and roughly 93% of its LNG exports normally have to pass through Hormuz. There isn’t an equivalent alternative shipping route. That means a disruption in this tiny stretch of water can affect gas markets thousands of miles away. Here’s how Qatar turned natural gas into geopolitical influence and why that same geography makes Hormuz so important. #StraitOfHormuz #Qatar #iran #EnergyTok #Geopolitics
