Addressing The Impacts of Regional Conflicts on Energy Security: Toward A Legal Framework For Credible And Transparent Mediation

Дата публикации: 18-07-2026 00:00:00

This study examines how the continued reliance of Western powers on Gulf oil
and LNG shapes global energy security and creates a structural need for
sustained conflict mediation during Middle Eastern crises. Using a qualitative
legal-analytical methodology, the article evaluates historical energy disruptions,
market transformations, and the evolving geopolitical role of Gulf states as both
energy superpowers and mediators. The findings show that despite
diversification efforts, Western economies remain vulnerable to Gulf-based
supply shocks - especially amid Qatar’s rising dominance in LNG markets and
ongoing regional chokepoint risks. The results also reveal a growing paradox:
Gulf mediators possess both the leverage to stabilize conflicts and economic
interests that complicate perceptions of neutrality. The study concludes that
effective global energy security now depends on hybrid mediation frameworks
in which Western states partner with regional actors to prevent marketdisturbing escalations and secure long-term stability.
