Iran–Israel War : Russia Wins, India Pays the Price | UPSC Geopolitics/Geoeconomics

The Iran–Israel war is not just a military conflict – it is an oil and gas war that is reshaping global power. While missiles fly over West Asia, the real winners and losers are emerging in Moscow, Beijing and New Delhi.

In this video, I explain why many experts say Russia and Vladimir Putin are the short‑term winners, and why India is one of the biggest losers of this oil shock. We break down how the Strait of Hormuz crisis has spiked crude prices, how Russia has turned India from a “discount” customer into a full‑price buyer, and why China is relatively cushioned with bigger reserves and cheap Iranian/Russian oil.

What we cover in this video:

How the Iran–Israel–US war disrupted the Strait of Hormuz and global shipping
Why oil and gas prices have jumped sharply and may stay high
How Russia is benefiting from higher prices and rising demand for its crude
How India lost the Russian discount, faces higher import costs and macro risks
Why India is more vulnerable than China to a prolonged Gulf energy shock
Impact on petrol, diesel, LPG, rupee, inflation and India’s growth story
