Even if that is avoided, the most strapped nations will be sorely tempted to cut their imports of nonpetroleum goods so that they can save cash to pay for the oil, a strategy that could cripple world trade. Italy in April did in fact clamp restrictions on many non-oil imports, to the anger of its eight partners in the European Common Market, who fortunately did not follow suit...
