That's why Chinese are building the continental Silk Road in addition to existing naval routes. When SHTF event happens, the trade within Asia+Europe will continue and the navy can manage whale traffic instead.
- blahi 10y agoThere is a reason why naval routes became dominant.
- hga 10y agoWill that new Silk Road be able to deliver iron ore, crude oil, and other bulk cargoes including food ones? And if yes, except maybe for an oil pipeline (which would be relatively easy to take out), sea transport is still going to be a lot cheaper. Plus not everything they import if from Asia+Europe, e.g. iron ore and soybeans from Brazil last time I checked.
