The United States wanted to blockade the South China Sea, and China succeeded in getting out of the trap with Singapore.
In the past two days, the United States has been clamoring for another thing in the South China Sea, and the United States should follow the example of the Houthis in blockading the Red Sea, and the United States blockading China in the Strait of Hormuz and the Strait of Malacca.
Let's analyze the feasibility of this matter.
First of all, the Strait of Hormuz is at Iran's doorstep, and the United States will absolutely not be able to seal this strait by virtue of the deep blood feud between Iran and the United States.
However, the Strait of Malacca is not necessarily, the Strait of Malacca is the most important shipping route in the world, so the United States has always wanted to control the shipping lane, and Malaysia has always been an important target for the United States to infiltrate and control.
Plus the United States has military bases in the Philippines and Singapore,
The United States can completely form a pocket along the perimeter of the South China Sea and enclose the South China Sea, and in this way, it will be equivalent to completing the blockade of the South China Sea, and no Chinese ships will want to go out at that time.
So it's really hard to do.
However, now we have announced that we will fully exempt visas with Singapore, and we have broken the blockade of the United States at once.
China's trick is wonderful.
The mutual visa exemption between China and Singapore is not just as convenient as traveling.
If we look at the map, Singapore is just stuck at the throat of the Strait of Malacca.
China and Singapore are fully exempt from visas, and there are currently only 22 countries with China that are fully exempt from visas, such as Maldives, Kazakhstan and other countries.
This represents not only a very close economic relationship between the two countries, but also a high degree of political mutual trust.
For example, in the past few days, after the Maldives refused to garrison India, it agreed to the docking of a Chinese scientific research ship for personnel rotation and material supply.
Therefore, although Singapore has a US military base, to a certain extent, it has also turned to China, and as long as China can have Singapore as a starting point, it can directly tear a hole in the blockade line laid out by the United States in the South China Sea.
Moreover, let's not forget that the American ship cannot cross the Red Sea, as long as it goes, the Houthis will beat him.
But the Chinese ships are different, basically they can go wherever they want, and the Houthis don't care at all.
It is entirely possible for Chinese ships to go directly to Singapore from the South China Sea and then enter the Strait of Malacca.
After crossing the Strait of Malacca, it is the Indian Ocean.
In the Indian Ocean, you can take the Red Sea-Suez Canal route to the Mediterranean Sea and then to the Atlantic Ocean, and down to the Cape of Good Hope in Africa to enter the Atlantic Ocean.
This is called the vast world and great achievements.
