## Prediction

Within seven days, major energy-importing states—likely including the EU, China, India, Japan, and South Korea—will push for or convene an emergency diplomatic forum focused on de-escalating US–Iran hostilities in Hormuz and stabilizing energy flows. This may take form as an ad hoc UN Security Council initiative, G20 energy ministers’ call, or a Gulf-focused conference hosted by a neutral power such as Oman or Qatar. While unlikely to immediately end fighting, this will increase political costs for both Washington and Tehran and could catalyze backchannel talks on limited deconfliction. Confirmation would be official calls for such a summit and travel by energy ministers; denial would be muted diplomatic response despite persistent disruption.

## Drivers

- Systemic risk to crude and LNG flows via Hormuz
- Airspace closures affecting global aviation
- Italy-style precedents of Rome talks on regional conflicts (e.g., Lebanon–Israel)
- Pressures on large importers wary of sustained $85+ oil
