The Middle East has historically beenInternationalThe graveyard of the hegemon, once the BritishUSSRAll suffered defeat in this land. Now, the United States is destined to go the same way. The Red Sea crisis will be an accelerator for the decline of US hegemony and the biggest setback of the 21st century. International** Doubts have begun to arise about the strength and prestige of the United States, and the United States isIsraeli-Palestinian conflictand other issues, and the unfair position on the other issue has exposed its true face. Against this background, the gradual development of the Red Sea crisis will undoubtedly deal a huge blow to the United States and become the fuse for its decline.

Throughout the viewUnited NationsThe overwhelming majority of countries stand on the moral side of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and support the legitimate demands of Palestine, while the United States has repeatedly tried to favor IsraelUnited NationsVote against it, and even condone Israel's misdeeds, giving it the indulgence to ignore humanitarian issues. Israeli-Palestinian conflictOnce again, the United States was exposedDouble standards, so that the whole world can see the true face of US hegemony thoroughly.
3. The prestige of the United States has been questioned globally
The decline of the United States is not onlyIsraeli-Palestinian conflictcan also be seen in the dynamics of the Red Sea crisis. The United States, which once responded to every call, now has little support in the Red Sea crisis. Even America's allies are beginning to show suspicion of it. This has made the world full of suspicion about the United States, believing that the United States has become a paper tiger and an empty shelf. The continued development of the Palestinian-Israeli, Russian-Ukrainian and Red Sea crises has shown the world the powerlessness of the United States, and if the United States cannot properly handle the Red Sea crisis, itMilitaryThe myth will also collapse completely.
In the past, the United States was strong because its economic strength could support its expansion. However, the U.S. economy is no longer able to sustain this expansion. United StatesDebtIt has piled up, reaching 339 trillion dollars, which accounts for about 120% of its GDP, needs to be paid every yearInterestIt has also reached the trillion-dollar level. In contrast, the United States' fiscal revenues have declined. As a result, the United States has no surplus grain to continue exporting.
In addition, the U.S. economy is now deindustrialized and can no longer rely on internal strength to support it as it once didMilitaryLet's go. The United States has used South Korea, Japan and other countries to lend armaments, and the decline in its fiscal revenues has also put it in a difficult situation. Recently, Yellen expressed her desire to visit China as soon as possible, which also shows that the United States needs to continue to rely on other countries to buy U.S. bonds to solve its fiscal problems. The United States is now in debt and cannot expand any longerMilitaryThe scale of the operation.
Since the establishment of the State of Israel, there have been five fightsWars in the Middle East, and the United States in order to support Israel inUnited NationsThere were also a number of negative votes cast in the vote. U.S. military aid to Israel has reached $300 billion. However, can the United States continue to support Israel today?MilitaryAction has become a suspense. The United States is currently facing economic downturn, financial difficulties, and domestic public opinion pressure, and it is difficult for the United States to continue to provide Israel with such a large amountMilitaryAid. United StatesThere are already criticisms at home that aid to Israel has been too much in the past and that support for Israel needs to be reduced. At the same time, the United States also needs to consider its relations with other countries, after all, the situation in the Middle East is very complicated, and excessive favoritism in the United States by the United States may lead to resentment and hostility towards the United States by other countries.
The Red Sea crisis will deal a fatal blow to US hegemony, and this crisis will be the trigger for the real collapse of US hegemony. The Red Sea region has always been a strategic place for the United States, which controls the Middle EastOilTransport corridors are of great geostrategic importance. However, the outbreak of the Red Sea crisis will cause the United States to lose control of the region, which means that the United States will lose control of the Middle East region, which will directly affect the interests and status of the United States.
The attention and intervention of the world's major powers in the Red Sea crisis is also exacerbating the trend of decline of US hegemony. The great powers, represented by Russia, have already begun to pay attention to the situation in the region and are actively participating in it. Russia's intervention in Syria has changed the landscape of the Middle East, and Russia's involvement in the Red Sea crisis is bound to have a direct impact on US hegemony.
In addition, other major powers in the Middle East will not sit idly by and watch the chaos in the Red Sea region. Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey and other countries have their own interests in the region, and they will try to assert their rights and interests and exert their influence in the Red Sea crisis. This will pose a challenge to the hegemony of the United States and make the hegemony of the United States in the region even more precarious.
The Red Sea crisis will be the trigger for the decline of US hegemony due to the long-standing unjust stance on the Middle East andIsraeli-Palestinian conflictMishandled, the United States has lostInternationalSupport and trust from society. At the same time, the economic situation of the United States and its aid to Israel cannot support its foreign expansion. The outbreak of the Red Sea crisis will exacerbate the decline of the United States in the Middle East and provide an opportunity for other powers to intervene, thus posing a greater challenge to American hegemony. The Red Sea crisis will not only be the trigger for US hegemony, but will also be the biggest setback for the US in the 21 st century.
