Israel-Iran escalation, relations and impacts: what does Brazil have to do with it?

The 15 Minutes podcast addresses the conflict between Israel and Iran , focusing on its global repercussions and, specifically, its impact on Brazil .

Hosts Mariana Braga and Frederico Junkert discuss how Iran's possible closure of the Strait of Hormuz could raise oil prices and, consequently, inflation in Brazil, as well as affect Brazilian meat exports. They also analyze Brazil's position in the conflict, characterized by a history of misalignment with Israel under PT governments, and highlight international concern over Iran's nuclear program and Iran's support for groups considered terrorists.

The conversation explores the complexity of Brazilian international relations and the historical division in Islam between Shiites and Sunnis, which influences the current geopolitical scenario.
