as posted by the channel

The Iran war has exposed how vulnerable so many of South Asia's economies are to energy shocks. As tension between the US and Iran continues, countries like India are facing rising pressure over fuel supplies, cooking gas shortages, inflation and economic security. But why has an economy as large as India's become so exposed to events in the Gulf?

Atlantic Council South Asia expert Michael Kugelman joins DW's The Day to discuss:

- India’s dependence on Gulf energy

- Why LPG shortages are affecting millions of households

- The role of coal, renewables and energy diversification

- Risks to migrant workers and remittances from the Gulf

- Pakistan’s role in regional diplomacy and mediation
