LA port chief on how the Iran war is impacting global trade

Gene Seroka, chief of the Port of Los Angeles, discussed the impact of the Iran war on global trade with NBC's Geoff Bennett. While major U.S. ports are currently operating normally, shipping companies and businesses are increasingly concerned about potential supply chain disruptions stemming from the conflict. The stability of American ports could be at risk if the situation escalates, raising questions about how long normal operations can be sustained. Iran's strategic location on shipping routes and potential threats to maritime commerce make this a critical issue for global trade flows. The conversation underscores the vulnerability of supply chains to geopolitical conflict in key shipping corridors.
