At the request of the United States, 10 countries formed a joint force to escort the Red Sea

Mondo International Updated on 2024-01-30

At present, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has aroused widespread concern in the international community, and various countries have expressed their stance on Israel and demanded that it stop its military action. The United Nations also calls on all parties to exercise restraint in order to avoid further deterioration of the situation. However, in fact, Israel** has been facing enormous internal and external pressures. Some armed groups have made military threats against Israel, such as the Houthis, which promote a "blockade plan" to restrict the movement of ships to Israel. If this blockade continues, it will have a serious impact on the Israeli economy and shipping. In order to ensure the smooth flow of shipping, Israel** has asked the United States for help, asking the international community to take action to ensure that ships can enter Israel normally. However, with Saudi Arabia refusing to help, the United States and other Western countries had to step in and take action to protect shipping safety.

Faced with the problem of shipping in the Red Sea, the United States and other Western countries, under pressure, decided to take matters into their own hands. According to the latest news, 10 countries have formed a "multinational joint force" to jointly maintain the safety of shipping in the Red Sea region. Among them, the US Department of Defense announced that it would take the lead, and France, the United Kingdom, Italy, the Netherlands and other countries would join the operation. According to the current plan, these countries will provide intelligence support and send ** to the Red Sea region to intercept possible air attacks by the Houthis. When necessary, they will even take action against the organization to ensure the safety of shipping. It can be said that the Western countries have finally come to an end, and they have to take the initiative to participate in this conflict to protect Israeli shipping and regional security.

1.Military Cooperation: Israel is a military partner of the United States, and the two countries maintain close military relations with mutually beneficial interests. Israel has purchased a large number of advanced equipment from the United States, such as fighter planes, missiles, radars, etc., to enhance its military strength. In addition, the United States and Israel jointly develop and improve the first system, sharing leading technologies and technologies. Such cooperation not only benefits Israel's security, but also provides strategic benefits to the United States.

2.Intelligence Cooperation: The United States maintains a close intelligence partnership with Israel, sharing intelligence on terrorism, nuclear proliferation, and the situation in the Middle East. This intelligence sharing helps the United States better understand the situation in the region and develop policies and strategies accordingly. Intelligence cooperation is also critical to the long-term stability of the entire Middle East region, including Israel.

3.Economic benefits: The United States has invested a lot of money in Israel in science and technology, industry, agriculture, and other fields. Israel's security issues, once threatened the interests of American business, would have a significant impact on the US economy.

4.Historical Roots: The United States and Israel have deep historical ties. At the beginning of the 20th century, a large number of Jews immigrated to the United States in order to escape ** and pursue freedom. These immigrants have contributed immensely to the economic development, scientific and technological advancement, and cultural prosperity of the United States. The Jewish community has a strong pro-Israel lobby within the United States and has significant influence over American policy.

5.Strategic Layout: Israel's presence is of great geopolitical and strategic importance for the United States. By supporting Israel, the United States is able to contain the forces of other countries in the Middle East and safeguard its own strategic interests. In addition, the presence of the US ** team in the Middle East has also facilitated its acquisition of intelligence and the implementation of military missions.

Although the United States has verbally criticized Israel in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, in reality they have not strictly demanded that Israel stop the conflict. This is because the cooperation and interests between the United States and Israel are too deep for the United States to easily abandon this ally. While Israel's actions may cause public outrage, the United States must weigh all the factors and maintain its special relationship with Israel while safeguarding its own interests. In the international political arena, relations between countries are often complex and diverse, and countries need to balance their relations with other countries according to their own interests. For the United States, cooperation with Israel is the result of many considerations, not only involving military cooperation and intelligence cooperation, but also closely related to historical, economic, and strategic factors. Only by taking these factors into account can the United States make corresponding decisions to safeguard its own interests and regional security.
