In the conflict between "West" and Russia/China the key element is the risks associated with international trade. I mentioned in this blog that China has a strategic hold of the Malacca strait and is able to block it any time. A similar situation is observed with the Suez channel with two Russian military strongholds near both sides of the channel. The current blockage of the Suez demonstrates the outcome of a short blockage.
