The global economy has been broadly resilient to the shock from the war in the Middle East, the heads of the International Energy Agency, International Monetary Fund, World Bank Group, and World Trade Organisation said in a joint statement on Wednesday.
The leaders reiterated the need for progress toward a resolution to the conflict and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
“Uncertainty remains high, and the impacts of the war could linger. Energy markets and transit of goods are still facing strains,” the statement said. –Agencies
