Since the outbreak of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, China has been committed to a peaceful settlement of the conflict. Not long ago, however, the proposal put forward by China and other countries for the peaceful settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli dispute was rejected by the United States. An early and peaceful settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is not only related to Palestine and Israel, but also has a direct bearing on other countries in the world.
Recently, the Houthis began to set up checkpoints in the Gulf of Aden in the Red Sea, nominally to control Israeli military operations, but with direct impact on merchant ships passing through the Red Sea. This can be very fatal for many countries.
Therefore, the United States began to gather Britain, France, Italy and other countries to patrol and escort ships in the Red Sea. The United States is really shooting itself in the foot, and if China's proposal for a peaceful truce is passed, then the Houthis will not set up checkpoints in the Red Sea.
The Red Sea is a region that is responsible for nearly half of the world's shipping. Just after the Houthis began to set up cards, shipping groups from Germany and other countries began to try to bypass the Red Sea and take other routes. While this solution can solve the problem temporarily, it has increased the cost of shipping a lot.
You know, if you want to go around the Red Sea, then it will increase the range by about 30%. This will have a very negative impact on the economies of Europe, Africa, Asia and other regions. After the epidemic, the economy of various countries is sluggish, and if it is impossible to transport goods normally due to war, it will have a very negative impact on the economy of the world.
Although the United States once again organized the Red Sea operation and had many countries carry out escort patrols in the Red Sea, this is a palliative solution. If we want to solve this problem once and for all, then we should still have a peaceful settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, so that the world can return to normal order.
But this is clearly not in line with the vision of the United States, in which it is better to let the Palestinian-Israeli conflict continue. Israel, with the support of the United States, hopes to be able to occupy more areas of Palestine. If the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is allowed to continue as the United States and Israel envision, it is very likely that in the future, not only will the Red Sea no longer be peaceful, but even other important roads and sea areas will become unpeaceful.
According to authoritative research institutes**, if this situation continues, container freight rates will rise significantly. The ripple effect will be on other industries, and for many countries, this is something that no one wants to see.
