About this report
The war that began on 28 February 2026 will end, through negotiation or exhaustion, within weeks or months. What it has already produced, however, is not reversible on the same timeline: a structural reconfiguration of how governments across three continents calculate the cost of dependence.
The Strait of Hormuz closure, the systematic targeting of Gulf energy infrastructure, the demonstrated failure of passive neutrality as a protective posture, and the simultaneous exposure of European air defense stockpile exhaustion have converged into a single, unambiguous strategic signal.
Key questions this report answers
- How does the report argue the war that began on 28 February 2026 has produced irreversible shifts in how governments across three continents price dependence?
- What strategic consequences follow from the Strait of Hormuz closure and systematic targeting of Gulf energy infrastructure?
- Why does the report treat the exposure of European air-defence stockpile exhaustion as a decisive signal for rearmament?
- What does the failure of passive neutrality as a protective posture imply for energy and strategic autonomy in the post-Hormuz order?
