The current development trend of the global political situation indicates that some actions of the United States may lead relevant countries to face a comprehensive maritime blockade.
According to news agencies, the renowned Russian economist Mikhail Hazin does not rule out the possibility of this situation occurring.
He said that if Donald Trump does not cancel the implemented trade tariffs in the near future, this situation may occur. In this case, the trade war between relevant countries and the United States may escalate to a new level.
This expert explained that under such circumstances, Trump may significantly accelerate the implementation process of his plan to seize the Southeast Asian market and exclude manufacturers from relevant countries. He believes that such competition may take on quite a large scale.
In particular, almost all countries surrounding relevant countries may side with the United States and declare a comprehensive maritime blockade against relevant countries. Hazin concluded that in this situation, relevant countries would have only one viable trade route — through the La Pérouse Strait.
