The Bretton Woods Committee is pleased to Member Spotlight Hung Tran and his recent article in the Atlantic Council titled "What attacks in the Red Sea could mean for the global economy."
According to the article - "In the past week, Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have fired missiles at container ships in the Red Sea in addition to attacking US and allied warships. Houthi representatives have said that those attacks will continue against ships related to Israel in any way, to support Hamas and as a protest against Israel’s war in Gaza. The attacks have raised geopolitical and military tension in the region and disrupted trade flows—adding headwinds to a fragile global economy and threatening to expand the already extensive war with rising civilian casualties launched in response to Hamas’ brutal terrorist attacks on October 7."
