🛢️ ADIPEC — The UAE's own energy minister just put numbers on a crisis his country can't escape. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Al Jaber's figures — 30% logistics cost share vs. 5% pre-crisis, 600 bcf LNG shortfall, 35-year diesel lows — convert Hormuz disruption from geopolitical abstraction to supply-chain arithmetic. Abu Dhabi is a Gulf producer trapped by the same chokepoint it ships through. His call for diplomacy from ADIPEC's stage is the UAE signaling it wants an exit — without saying so to Washington.
