The importance of the Red Sea waterway.
The Suez Canal is a key passage connecting the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, and plays a key role in the development of the world economy and energy. Europe, North America, Asia and other places can trade and energy materials through the Suez Canal to make it easier. The Middle East is one of the world's most important energy exporters, delivering enormous amounts of energy to the world through the Red Sea Corridor. Whether the Suez Canal is smooth or not will have a major impact on the stability of the world energy market. With the political turmoil in the Middle East, countries have taken a detour through the Red Sea Strait to the Cape of Good Hope, creating a double pressure on freight costs and energy supplies.
The failure of the American escort mission.
In December, the United States formed a convoy to carry out cruising missions near the Red Sea to ensure the safety of the shipping route and the normal flow of supplies. However, the geographical environment of the Middle East is very complex, and the joint participation of all parties has made it impossible for this escort mission to achieve the desired results. The US escort operation was not only strongly criticized by the countries of the Middle East, but also further intensified the scale of the war. The Houthis accuse the United States of using escort missions to extend the scope of the fighting and help Israel. At the same time, the Red Sea was blocked, and the domestic oil supply of the United States was also greatly affected. The failure of this escort mission not only did not fundamentally eliminate the hidden dangers of maritime transportation, but also made the regional situation more complicated and caused the conflict between the people to continue to expand.
The effect of the navigation of commercial ships around the Red Sea.
The Red Sea route is no longer a good route, and many commercial ships detour to South Africa to the Indian Ocean, which will not only make the route longer and more expensive, but also have a certain impact on the world's oil supply and oil prices. The cargo spacecraft that carries the energy is flying our flag to reduce the danger. This is also a manifestation of the important role that China is playing in world affairs. At the same time, the fact that some Western countries, led by the United States, have turned to China on the Red Sea route also shows that they have no choice to take in the face of damage to their own interests.
The situation in the Middle East and its impact on the world.
Tensions in the Middle East are spreading throughout the world, and peace in the international community seems far away. Whether it is the Palestinian-Israeli dispute or the Russia-Ukraine dispute, the United States' handling of the Middle East issue has exposed its dualism and short-sightedness. However, the outbreak of war in the Middle East has not only had a far-reaching impact on the stability and economic development of the country, but also had a tremendous impact on the economy, trade, and energy transmission of countries around the world. The blockage of the Red Sea straits not only increases shipping costs, but also increases sailing times, as well as key resources such as energy. Whether the Red Sea shipping lanes can return to normalcy has become a question of global concern, but there is no clear answer or timetable yet.
The causes of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and the way to resolve it.
The Palestinian-Israeli conflict erupted as a result of the inability to guarantee the fundamental rights of the Palestinian people and Israel's repression of them. Keep fighting, no matter who wins, you can't make up for what you lost. All countries of the world should resolve issues through dialogue in order to promote peace in the region. But some war-oriented countries do not want to do so. They waged a great war in the Middle East, expanding their territory for their own benefit, but at the same time suffering the consequences of this war.
In the long run, the contradictions in the Middle East are not only a global issue, but also an issue of negative significance to world peace and development. In the context of globalization, in order to maintain regional and world stability and development, all countries in the world should work together to find a peaceful path.
