Now a high-level meeting is going to be held under the mediation of Qatar (Qatar Peace Talks) to resolve the diplomatic deadlock between the two superpowers. As soon as this big and positive news came out, the international trade corridors and the global market heaved a sigh of relief, because now cargo and oil tanker ships from all over the world will be able to pass safely through this route without any fear.

Qatar became a trouble-shooter: Know how the talks between America and Iran happened?

Qatar, a strategically important Gulf country, has once again played the role of a troubleshooter for global peace. According to sources, the Emir and top diplomats of Qatar had maintained constant contacts with the foreign ministries of both the countries behind the scenes. Recently, after the leak of a line of ‘Article 5’ included in the draft of the peace agreement, the matter which had gone completely wrong, has been brought back on track by Qatar through a new neutral draft. Both America and Iran have agreed that they will sit in Qatar’s capital Doha and find a peaceful solution to the disputed issues and till then no country will take any aggressive military action in Hormuz.

Global market brightened: Expected huge fall in crude oil prices

As soon as the news of this historic peace talks reached Dalal Street and global futures markets (Wall Street), relief was seen all around. For the past several days, the fear of petrol and diesel prices skyrocketing due to the fear of disruption in the supply chain of crude oil has now been averted to a great extent. Commodity experts believe that after this ceasefire, there will be a decline in the prices of Brent crude in the international market. Its direct and biggest benefit will be to a rapidly growing economy like India, which is most dependent on this sea route for its energy needs.

Safe passage opened for ships: Indian shipping companies heaved a sigh of relief

This news is no less than a boon for dozens of Indian commercial ships and global cargo shipping companies passing through the Strait of Hormuz every day. Due to the face-off between the Iranian Navy and American warships on this route for the last few days, the insurance premium of the ships had increased significantly and many routes had to be diverted. Now after the official announcement of the start of talks in Qatar, the alert level in this maritime area has been reduced. Local ports and international maritime security agencies have also confirmed that ship movements have now resumed in a completely normal and safe manner.
