US, China, India flex muscle over energy-critical sea lanes

Posted by Matt in October 6th, 2006

Link to this article.

The United States, China and India are moving to assert control over the sea lanes through which they receive critical energy supplies amid fears in Beijing of a US blockade of the Malacca Strait in the event of a crisis over Taiwan, experts said here.

The United States at present has vast control over the major so-called “choke points” on the world’s sea lanes, said experts at a recent forum in Washington.

Almost all of China’s energy imports are obtained through sea and it is worried the United States could hold its oil supply hostage.

Beijing is also concerned over its gradually weakening position in the Indian Ocean as New Delhi develops new generations of weapons systems with US support.

Chinese growth leaves US industry in question - 22 Oct 08
This year China's trade deficit with the United States is expected to top $250bn, as imports flood in and exports fail to find a market with Chinese consumers. In return, jobs have flowed into China from the US, a trend both US presidential candidates have vowed to reverse. But how serious is the problem facing the next American President and beyond the political rhetoric, is there anything he can really do? In the third of his special series, Tony Cheng traveled to the heartland of US heavy industry to find out.

Suspicions mar US-China military relations - 20 Oct 08
The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have been spoken about it in great detail during the election campaign so far. But it seems military threats from other sources are still of great concern to US voters. A recent survey conducted by the Financial Times found that China was the country that most Americans perceived as a potential military threat. In the first of a special series on ties between the United States and China, Tony Cheng traveled to Hawaii to look at the relations between these two military giants.

Postcard to U.S. President: Beijing
People in China send their first wishes to the new U.S. President-elect Barak Obama. Many Chinese see Obama as a youthful president-elect with the energy to tackle the financial crisis now threatening their economy. He's also seen carrying an ethnic heritage that could help America reach out to the rest of the world. 1. (English) QIU XIAOHUI, STUDENT, SAYING: "Obama, I'm really happy you won. And I hope you can help American people set up more understanding to Chinese. And maybe also help all the people from the world to know what happens in China. It's very important for me" 2. (Mandarin) HAN LONG, BUSINESSMAN, SAYING: "Hello Mr. Obama. Two months ago I already knew you would become president of the United States. I have placed so much hope on you.

RUSSIA - CHINA SURPASS US AIR SUPERIORITY !!
The saint excused himself from receiving the money to two different messengers; but being compelled by a third to accept it, he took the messenger with him to the prisons, and laid it all out in his presence in releasing debtors. This disinterestedness turned the duke's aversion into the greatest veneration for the saint ever after. St. Bernardine preached several times through the greatest part of Italy; some say also in Spain; but this seems uncertain. Nothing was more spoken of over all Italy than the wonderful fruit of his sermons, miraculous conversions, restitution of ill-gotten goods, reparations of injuries, and heroic examples of virtue. The factions of the Guelfs and Ghibellins then horribly divided many cities of Italy, and gave frequent employment to the saint. Hearing once...

China in U.S. Campaign Politics: Part 6 of Election 08 and the Challenge of China
The opening segment documents the importance of the U.S.-China relationship and its complexity. China has the fastest growing large economy, has become the top producer of greenhouse gases, and is increasingly prominent in negotiations to limit the spread of nuclear weapons. Its a well-established tradition for candidates to criticize how the current president has dealt with China. These candidates complain that the president has been too easy on or to close to China. Upon moving into the White House, presidents have found it necessary to forge stronger ties with China in order to achieve other aims. This segment reviews nearly thirty years of candidate statements and presidential policies. http://china.usc.edu
