Iran reroutes trade to Caspian Sea as Hormuz disrupted
Original: Iran shifts trade north to Caspian Sea as war impairs Strait of Hormuz
Iran is shifting trade routes north to the Caspian Sea as the war has impaired shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, the main artery for its commerce and oil exports. The rerouting marks a significant logistical adjustment, with goods moving overland to Caspian ports for onward trade. Observers are weighing how sustainable the alternative route is and what the disruption to Hormuz means for regional and global trade.
Why now: Ongoing war has disrupted the Strait of Hormuz, forcing Iran to seek alternative trade routes.
