Australian minister warns Middle East conflict risks global inflation

Australian Treasury Minister Jim Chalmers warned that escalating conflict in the Middle East poses a significant threat to global inflation. The escalation has depleted worldwide oil stocks and heightened the likelihood of oil prices exceeding $200 per barrel, which could lift Australian inflation to at least 7.25%. He emphasized that the world is now less equipped with resources to absorb market shocks, indicating that current tensions may lead to sustained increases in economic costs and worsening conditions.
