The International Energy Agency (IEA) has recommended that governments avoid flights whenever possible and switch to using electric stoves instead of gas stoves in order to reserve liquefied natural gas reserves. This was reported on March 21 by The Guardian newspaper.

"The IEA advised member countries, including Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States, to take emergency measures to reduce oil demand following the military strikes on Iran, which caused the most significant supply disruptions in the history of the global oil market," the publication says.

In addition, the agency insists on the need to transfer workers to remote mode and reduce the speed limit on motorways by at least 10 km/h to save gasoline.

Industrial enterprises are offered assistance in switching to alternative petrochemical raw materials to reduce dependence on scarce resources, she added."Газета.Ru ".

Atif Kubursi, an economics professor at McMaster University, told Izvestia on March 18 that the conflict in the Middle East had become a serious blow to the global economy. According to the expert, this was influenced by the import tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump and the special operation of the United States and Israel on Iran, which disrupted oil supplies through the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz.

All important news is on the Izvestia channel in the MAX messenger.
