Is the Iran war about to trigger a global economic collapse? Ashok Kumar, associate professor of political economy at Birkbeck, University of London, explains how the expansion of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran is sending shockwaves through global markets and threatening to destabilize the world economy.
