Episode Trump Blames the Wrong War for the Diesel Crisis, but the Numbers Say Otherwise

Brent jumped 65.5% after the US-Israeli war on Iran began, fell in June as Hormuz flows resumed despite collapsing russian refining, and rose again when US attacks resumed in July. Ukrainian strikes add pressure, yet Gulf disruptions remain the core of the crisis.
