Ten minutes later, fifteen electric vehicles were used in the camp of the Western United Military Forces. These electric vehicles are not electric vehicles like the outside world, but completely electric military vehicles. Moreover, judging from the appearance of these military vehicles and the outside world It can be seen that in the Western world, battery technology has actually been broken through long ago. The Western world did not come up with battery technology so quickly. I believe the main reason is oil, and oil. Because of some conflicts of interest.
As we all know, the United States is currently implementing a policy of oil rice gold.
So what is petroleum rice gold?
Petro-dollar refers to the surplus funds of the oil-exporting countries after the increase in oil revenue after the sharp rise in oil prices in the mid-70s, after deducting the funds used to develop their own economies and other domestic expenditures.
Since oil is priced and settled in rice gold in the international market, some people collectively refer to all oil revenues of oil-producing countries as oil rice gold.The current petroleum rice gold is estimated to be 8000 billion to 1 trillion rice gold, which has become a remarkable force in the international capital market.
The Middle East War in 1973 led to a sharp rise in oil prices, resulting in a worldwide energy crisis.
In October 1977, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries announced that the price of oil would increase from 10 meters to 3.011 meters per barrel.Later, it was raised again to 5.11 meters of gold, resulting in great changes in the world's balance of payments structure.
These changes are manifested in: due to the huge increase in oil export revenue, the oil exporting countries have a huge surplus in their international payments; while the oil consuming countries have a huge deficit in their international payments due to the sharp increase in oil import expenditures.
turn out to be.The pattern of international balance of payments is "surplus for developed countries and deficit for developing countries". This pattern of international balance of payments was impacted by the increase in oil prices.A lot has changed.
Among oil-consuming countries, developed countries have been hit harder.The current balance of payments of developed countries often presents huge deficits due to the increase in oil prices.On the contrary, the current account of the oil exporting countries has a huge surplus - this is "oil rice gold".
There are various estimates for the scale of this fund. According to general calculations, the total oil export income of oil exporting countries in 1974 was about 1150 billion meters of gold, and their current imports were about 400 billion meters of gold, so there was a surplus About 750 billion meters of gold.
This surplus, on the one hand, represents the reduction in foreign exchange of oil-consuming countries, which is also the main reason for the huge deficits in the balance of payments of some developed countries.On the other hand, it means that the oil exporting countries are rich in oil rice gold.
This huge amount of oil rice gold has a great impact on both oil-importing countries and oil-exporting countries, and even on the entire world economy.
For oil-exporting countries, due to the huge income from oil rice gold and the small domestic investment market, they cannot fully absorb so much rice gold, and must use it abroad in the form of capital export.
For western industrialized countries, foreign expenditures have increased significantly due to imported oil.Most of the international payments show a huge deficit. If austerity measures are adopted, or restrictions on oil imports are adopted to improve the international payment situation, it may lead to economic recession.And affect the development of world trade.
Therefore, most of the industrial countries hope that the oil rice gold will flow back—from the oil exporting countries to the oil importing countries, and this will lead to the oil rice gold backflow.
Backflow of oil rice gold.In the initial period, it mainly flowed to the European money market, the New York financial market, financial institutions of various countries and international financial institutions.Its inflow areas are mainly west-Europe, Britain, rice and other countries.Developing countries also hope to use oil rice gold funds to develop their economies.
but.This huge oil rice gold has brought turmoil to the international financial market.
Petroleum rice is mostly international short-term funds in nature, which may move in large quantities and rapidly internationally, and this movement will seriously affect the stability of the international financial market. Therefore, all countries in the world are closely watching oil rice. change problem.
Western economic experts are very concerned about how the huge oil rice gold will be turned around in the world economy.Experts say oil rice gold is either spent or saved.
If oil-exporting countries use oil rice gold, they will expand imports from other countries, thereby maintaining global demand.However, it does not appear that they will cost a lot of money, preferring to maintain higher savings rates than oil importing countries.
The savings rate of the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait is as high as 40% of gdp. Therefore, the transfer of income from oil-consuming countries to oil-producing countries will lead to a slowdown in global aggregate demand. adversely affect the world economy.
If oil-exporting countries save large amounts of petrodollars and invest in global capital markets, they can finance the current account deficits of oil-importing countries, effectively borrowing money to allow importing countries to consume high-priced oil.
However, this increases the demand for foreign financial assets, which will raise asset prices, lower the bond yields of oil-importing countries, and help stimulate the economic vitality of oil-importing countries.
Experience has shown that a large amount of oil rice gold can be a good or bad thing for the economy of an oil-producing country. The problem is how to use and save this rice gold.
Some experts believe that relying on oil to make a fortune will delay the economic reform of oil-producing countries.
Oil-exporting countries are spending less now than in the past, keeping large surpluses to pay down their debts and build up their asset holdings.
After the emergence of oil rice gold, it had a huge impact on the world economy and international finance: first, it provided rich funds for oil-producing countries, promoted the economic development of these countries, changed their long-standing single economic structure, and gradually established An independent and complete national economic system.
Second, new imbalances have occurred in the balance of payments of different types of countries, and structural changes have taken place in the comparison of international reserve power.
For example, Xiongguo, a major oil country, has earned more oil rice gold due to rising oil prices.It is estimated that in 2005, Xiongguo's oil export revenue will be about 900 billion meters.As of September 2005, 9, Xiong Guo not only repaid the huge foreign debt owed to the Paris Club in advance, but also increased its gold and foreign exchange reserves to 18 million meters of gold.
third.Intensified the turmoil in the international financial market.
After the petroleum rice gold is put into the international market, it enriches the international credit power on the one hand.It satisfies the needs of many countries for long-term and short-term credit funds; on the other hand, it causes a large amount of hot money to flow among countries.Sometimes invest in stocks, sometimes invest in gold and national currencies.Leading to more volatility in the stock, gold and foreign exchange markets.
Petroleum rice gold is similar to the gold standard, but it is different from the currency era of the gold standard. As the standard currency, gold has unlimited legal solvency, and bank notes can be freely converted into gold coins.
Anyone could apply to the National Mint to have all of their gold minted into coins or melted down into bullion.
The import and export of gold can be freely transferred between countries.Its rights and obligations are reciprocal, and there is no way to escape debt repayment.The only thing is that the value of gold itself fluctuates.
However, the asymmetry of oil and gold leads to the separation of its rights and obligations. The United States manufactures rights (mi gold), maintains rice gold credit and deterrence (mi gold force), and oil producing countries provide obligations (oil).As long as the force of the United States can still conquer the world, you can exchange for anyone's oil resources by holding rice dollars.
By locking up oil, Americans enjoy the right to write dollar checks in debt, and have the obligation to maintain the credit of the dollar and the force of the dollar.
As long as the world's crude oil is still traded in rice dollars, the oil-based rice gold will not collapse.
Once the right to exchange rice gold for oil is violated, the United States is obliged to maintain rice gold force (deterrence).Therefore, although the wars in Kuwait, Witt, Iraq, and Iraq cost the United States a huge amount of manpower and material resources, all activities that challenge the oil standard must be severely cracked down, so the United States is not attacking them for no reason.
Mikin failed either because the U.S. military force was not enough to protect the oil standard, or Mijin failed due to insufficient credit.In actual international activities, it is almost impossible to fail by force, because as long as there is an oil standard, the United States has the power to gather global forces to attack any activities that challenge the oil standard.
Therefore, it is difficult for Mijin to collapse quickly.Most likely due to long-term weathering, Mijin Credit keeps challenging the limit of everyone's tolerance, but no one has the ability to use global power.But the gradual weakening is a predictable consequence, and no one will make final payment obligations for all Mijin.
After Mi Jin went completely weak.Fake credit checks that rule the world are next to impossible.
As the world's largest oil consumer and net importer, the rise in oil prices will undoubtedly have a negative impact on the US economy.And lead to fluctuations in the actual exchange rate of rice gold.
From a historical perspective, the previous oil crises have caused the recession of the U.S. economy and are the main reason for the fluctuation of the real exchange rate of rice and gold.However, the analysis of the actual exchange rate trend of rice and gold will be different from the above-mentioned analysis of general oil importing countries. The main reason is that international oil transactions are all priced and settled in rice and gold, and the rise in oil prices means that the demand for rice and gold payments has increased. , so it is still possible for Mikin to remain a strong currency, complicating the analysis.
Scholars' theoretical research and empirical analysis have shown that oil price fluctuations are the main factors leading to changes in the real exchange rate of rice and gold.In a nutshell, the sharp rise in oil prices mainly affects the nominal exchange rate of rice and yuan through the following three channels, and then affects the fluctuation of the real exchange rate of rice and gold.
First of all, the rise in oil prices will increase the cost of production materials and living costs in an all-round way, which will lead to an increase in inflation, and inflation will increase the demand for nominal money, which will lead to an increase in domestic credit demand, thereby attracting more foreign capital to flow into the United States. The inflow of foreign capital will lead to the rise of the exchange rate of rice and gold.
At the same time, the domestic monetary policy of the United States often strengthens the appreciation process of rice gold. The Federal Reserve often adopts tightening monetary policies such as raising interest rates in the early stages of oil price rises to control inflation. The increase will attract more foreign capital inflows, which will lead to an increase in the nominal exchange rate of rice and gold.
Secondly, the rise in oil prices has led to trade surpluses in oil-exporting countries, and the increase in foreign exchange reserves, mainly rice and gold, has produced the so-called "oil rice and gold". These oil rice and gold will enter the international financial market for large purchases out of profit-seeking needs. Rice gold assets, which in turn lead to an increase in the nominal exchange rate of rice gold.
Third, the continued rise in oil prices will lead to a recession in the world economy.This creates uncertainty in the balance of payments of oil-importing countries, so these countries have increased the ratio of rice and gold assets in their foreign exchange reserves to maintain the stability of the exchange rate.This further increases the demand for rice gold, leading to an increase in the nominal exchange rate of rice gold.
Under the combined effect of the above three influence mechanisms.The rise in the nominal exchange rate level occurs in the face of rising oil prices.
When the nominal exchange rate rises, the change of the real exchange rate level depends on the ratio of the US domestic price level to the foreign price level.
Because the United States consumes more oil than other countries, rising oil prices have a greater impact on the general price level in the United States than in other countries.In this way, the rise of the relative price level is consistent with the change direction of the nominal effective exchange rate, so when the oil price rises, the real exchange rate level of rice and gold will rise.
When international crude oil prices rise due to demand or political factors, the U.S. economy will experience recession due to its high dependence on imported crude oil.Therefore, in order to protect domestic interests, as a world currency.Rice gold can stimulate domestic economic growth by promoting exports through depreciation.
However, in order to avoid the loss caused by the depreciation of rice and gold, professional investors will choose to buy bulk commodities in the futures market, such as crude oil, gold or agricultural products to offset the value loss caused by currency depreciation.
And this kind of speculation will further push up commodity futures prices, and the excessively high futures crude oil prices will aggravate the worries of producers and further suppress the US economy, resulting in lower investor expectations and a worsening economic environment, which is reflected in the stock market. fall.
The falling stock market will further exacerbate the vicious circle, with funds fleeing and pushing up futures.eventually lead to inflation.
In order to avoid this vicious cycle, central banks often have to take actions to control the supply of money to avoid excessive fluctuations in currency exchange rates.
Abnormal Relationship--Weakness of rice gold reversely pushes up oil price
The U.S. economy is declining, oil consumption is decreasing, and demand is decreasing.Oil prices fell, but on the other hand, the U.S. economy declined.Rice gold depreciates, and oil is priced in rice gold.So, rice gold fell.Oil prices go up.
Analysts believe that the rise in oil prices is mainly due to the weakening of rice gold, rather than changes in supply and demand.
The continuous depreciation of rice gold is the driving force behind the scenes. Analysts believe that benefiting from the weakening of rice gold, the attractiveness of commodities as alternative investment products is gradually increasing, and the international oil price and rice gold are also increasingly negatively correlated.
Looking at the current rice gold and crude oil, the "one after another" relationship between the two has been relatively fixed, but what we cannot ignore is that, as a non-renewable resource, crude oil will be exhausted one day, and it will coexist with it. With the disappearance of the "opponent", will the Mijin of China live on the base or the peak of the seesaw for a long time?
Similarly, if the rice gold continues to depreciate, so that crude oil producers are no longer subject to the agreement with the United States, and adopt euro-dollar and other currencies to price crude oil, the world currency status of rice gold will likely be replaced by other currencies , Correspondingly, the dominance of the United States will be completely overthrown.
For this reason, if Mikin wants to continue to be bowed by thousands of people, he must take effective measures. On the one hand, the sluggish US economy can be revived and develop its glory again; on the other hand, the US must understand the principle of "foresight". When crude oil is not really exhausted, look for a new resource to replace it, just like crude oil replaced gold in 1975.
The price of international crude oil has soared since 2004. Is this caused by the structural defects of the oil market itself, or there are deeper and huge international political and strategic issues behind it? China and the United States are the first to bear the brunt of energy consumption. The urgent problems faced by big countries are the supply of crude oil and the safety of transportation of petroleum products.
The world's energy supply and demand relationship has been disrupted, from Venezuela to Switzerland to the Bear Country, from the Caspian Sea to the Persian Gulf, from the Earth-China Sea coast to West-Africa Several - Inner - Asian - Gulf, all affected.What's more serious is that oil has become a weapon used by terrorists to threaten to destroy the global crude oil market, and the world is full of unprecedented uncertainties.
From the reality of international relations in recent decades, it can be seen that oil resources are the main factor for wars and conflicts between countries, especially the pursuit of oil resources.
Control became one of the focal points of the international struggle.The Iraqi-Lakh invasion of Koh-Wei-T, Sea-Gulf-War, Iraq-LaK war, Japan's obstruction of the China-Xiong "Anda Line" oil pipeline project , and the South China Sea Islands issue involving China's sovereignty, there are profound resource factors behind it.
With the strengthening of energy diplomacy by various countries.A "new" geopolitical landscape has begun to appear in the field of international oil trade, which has accelerated the adjustment of international political relations and changes in the power structure.
In the long run.International energy cooperation is an important measure to ensure global energy security, however. "Oil politics" is also subject to the international strategic situation, and its impact on the development trajectory of international relations is uncertain.
For more than 100 years, the "oil factor" has always been an important aspect affecting international relations.In the past, international disputes were for territory and sovereignty. Modern international political competition has evolved from territory and sovereignty to resources. As many scholars have said: the most expensive thing in the 21st world is not talents, but resources.
Take the United States as an example. One of the main reasons for the United States to launch the war against Iraq is to control Iraq and Iraq and its rich oil resources.So far, Iraq-La-Craig is still one of the countries with the largest reserves of oil resources in the world.
Controlling Iraq, the United States will have a huge influence on the world oil market, that is, "unscrewing the Iraqi - Iraqi oil faucet will flood the world oil market, thereby greatly reducing oil prices"; —— Lak, will provide new business opportunities for U.S. oil companies.
The essence of the disagreement between Mi and Britain is that the British are worried that the United States will control Iraq alone, and the British will not get much benefit.
Since the outbreak of the Iraq-LaK war in 2003, international oil prices have continued to rise.Last few years.It is rising rapidly.Two years ago, experts were still talking about the impact on the economy if the international oil price exceeded $50 a barrel.However, by the beginning of 2008, the price of crude oil futures in the New York-New York market had reached US$100 per barrel.
At this time, people could not help feeling: the era of low oil prices is over.The rise in oil prices has also become a political card in the hands of oil-producing countries.
Not only Iran, but also Venezuela, Switzerland, Latin America, Sudan, and other countries use oil as their backing to win the support of major powers and develop bilateral relations with other countries.
The reason why Iran dares to restart its uranium enrichment program and is not afraid of the threat of the United States to refer this issue to the United Nations has a lot to do with its ability to influence the international oil market.
European countries and other big countries that depend on Iran's crude oil are unwilling to stalemate relations with Iran.
For the oil-producing countries in the Middle East, the pressure from the United States to carry out "democratic reform" is ubiquitous.But as long as the reform touches social stability and then interferes with oil production, the United States will temporarily ease the pressure, and does not want to see further fluctuations in the international oil market.
same.The EU-EU attaches great importance to improving relations with the bear country and strengthening relations with the countries along the ground-China-sea, and there are energy factors behind it.
Over the years.The European Union pays special attention to Africa, and it is debt relief.It is to increase aid, but also to launch the "African-African Strategy".The European Union attaches so much importance to Africa.In addition to anti-terrorist factors, energy-source security-security is one of the main factors.
Europe hopes to import more crude oil from Africa, and will compete with major powers that already have significant influence in the African region.And with the end of the Iraqi-Lakh War, some major powers have started another fight for control and distribution of post-war Iraqi-Lakh-reconstruction benefits, leading to oil Politicization is also on the horizon.
The reason why the oil issue has had a major impact on the pattern of international relations can be summed up for the following main reasons:
([-]) The pattern of international relations is closely related to oil security In today's world politics, energy, especially oil, plays a very important role.Whichever big country can control the world's oil can dominate the world.Therefore, during the Cold War period, the two superpowers, Mi and the Soviet Union, appeared in the world pattern of open or covert confrontation for the control of world oil.
After the end of the Cold War, the United States still strives to control major oil resources, and other major powers are also or will oppose the United States' control of world oil.
The formation of a new world pattern will depend to a certain extent on the control of world oil resources.
([-]) Operating the oil business is still one of the most profitable activities of major oil companies in various countries
Operating oil is operating "black gold". At present, the major oil companies in the world are still the most profitable enterprises.Some oil companies have annual profits of tens of billions of dollars.
2000年世界七个大石油公司的石油产量占世界总产量的35%。2001年全球企业的20强中,石油企业就占了5个。其中No.2是埃——克--森—美——孚公司,年营业收入高达亿美元。
Therefore.These big oil companies have an important influence on the foreign policies of all countries involved in "oil diplomacy".
In the 20s, the former Soviet Union established a stable political, economic and military system mainly by exporting oil income.The huge political, economic, and military power of the former Soviet Union's "developed-social-social-socialist-righteousness" is reflected by its rich oil resources. .And make the socialist camp headed by the former Soviet Union to play a role for a long time.
NATO's oil development has greatly stimulated the economic development of the United Kingdom and Norway, especially giving new vitality to the aging Great British Empire.
It is a well-known fact that the economic development of the middle-east oil-producing countries in recent decades has benefited from oil, which has enabled these backward countries to enjoy high status in today's international community. Reputation.
Because of the discovery of large oil fields, Li-Bia-A was able to leap from a backward country to a country with considerable influence on the international stage, and it dared to regard the number one empire in the world-the United States as a country. The main opponent of its own foreign policy.
The reason why the former Iraq - La - Iraq and the current Iran - Iran dare to confront the United States is also because they have extremely rich oil resources.The huge profits from oil production are the main source of funds for the economic development, political stability and military strength of these countries.
at present.Xiong Guo also sees itself very clearly. The government department regards oil as a huge lever to get rid of the country's economic difficulties, and believes that rich oil reserves are an important support for Xiong Guo to adjust its economic structure and solve foreign debts; At this stage, Xiong Guo is an important trump card for negotiations with international financial institutions; oil is also an important trump card for Xiong Guo to repay debts in the future; the development of the oil industry is a powerful means to drive the development of the entire country's metallurgical industry and machine manufacturing industry, and oil supports Xiong Guo Half the country.
([-]) As a huge force of habit, it has an impact on changes in international relations
In international affairs, it is the "oil factor" that can have a huge and continuous impact on international relations and the foreign policies of major powers.
In the world, most countries that can maintain policy continuity rely on "oil diplomacy".
"Oil diplomacy" is a combination of government policy and the interests of big oil companies.
The interests of some major oil companies drive them to participate in the decision-making of their country's foreign policy, so that the government's foreign policy has continuity.This is the importance of oil security.Make the world's major powers maintain a consistent attitude towards the international relations of the world's major oil producing areas and major transportation corridor countries.
This phenomenon was very obvious during the Cold War period.
At that time, the U.S. government had clearly announced that the Middle East region was an area of important strategic interest to China.
At present, the era of confrontation between the two superpowers is over.However, the United States has basically not changed its foreign policy towards these oil-producing countries. For example, it still maintains a special friendship with Saudi-Arab-Rabb and Co-Witt. relation.
"9?1-1" incident - after the incident.The United States regards Iraq, Iraq, and Iran as "evil-evil-axis-center" countries, and first adopts a military high-pressure policy against Iraq.Then it dispatched troops and generals, and finally launched a war against Iraq on March 2003, 3.Conquered Iraq by force, overthrew the Sa-Dam regime, and cleared the way for controlling the oil in Iraq.
As long as Iran-Iran does not change its attitude towards the United States, the United States will continue to impose sanctions on it.
At present, the United States is still competing with the bear country for oil control in Central Asia and even the Middle East.The foreign policies of these two countries are still inheriting the previous pattern and promoting their respective "oil diplomacy".
same.Japan also regards "oil diplomacy" as an important part of its foreign policy. On the one hand, it tightens its relations with the oil-producing countries in the Middle East.On the other hand, it is doing everything possible to develop the ocean-going navy to ensure the safety of its maritime oil transportation.
Countries in Western Europe are still pursuing the same "oil diplomacy" as during the Cold War.And it has basically maintained the same pace as the United States, the only difference is that there is no obvious military confrontation during the Cold War period.
In short, the characteristics of oil politics have produced the pattern of international relations and the fixed traditional customary forces for each major country to formulate foreign policies consistent with the oil issue.
Needless to say, oil first entered the stage of history as an energy product.The establishment of the oil futures market has made oil an important financial product.As an iconic strategic material, oil has gradually evolved into a political product. With the development of the situation, the nature and status of oil as a political product has been continuously strengthened.
([-]) High oil prices are in line with the strategic goals of the United States. Treating oil as a political product can better understand the current high oil prices and future oil price trends.
The price of oil is consistent with the strategic interests of the United States.and serve it.
The current primary strategic goal of the United States is to maintain its current hegemony.With China's rapid development, the United States has regarded China as a major threat to its hegemony.
Bush - Bush's first term in office - Taiwan - early - began to position China as a strategic competitor of the United States.
After the "September 9-1" incident, anti-terrorism became the core of the United States' foreign policy, and the United States needed China's support in the anti-terrorism war, which made Sino-Mi relations appear like before the United States. Secretary-Secretary-Bow-Will said "in the best period in history."
As the United States' war on terrorism comes to an end, the United States believes that it is still a traditional country that poses a strategic threat to it, and China is most likely to challenge the dominance of the United States.
For a while, the "China-threat-threat-theory" in the U.S. government and the opposition raised its head again.There are various indications.Preventing China from challenging the dominance of the United States has become the top priority of the United States' foreign strategy.
China's current development is facing an energy bottleneck and needs to import 300 million barrels of oil per day.Sky-high oil prices could cause China to spend huge sums on raw materials, which could ultimately curb China's economic growth, thereby threatening China's economic and political stability.
therefore.The current high oil price is consistent with the strategic goal of the United States.
([-]) The main tool for the United States to dominate oil prices is to make full use of the hegemony of the US dollar.
The United States attaches great importance to linking oil to the US dollar as one of its strategic tools.
At present, the prices of almost all oil producing countries in the world today are quoted in US dollars.The only exception is Iran, which quotes in Euros.
If you analyze the oil futures prices in Europe.For example, the original prices of B-L-T, L-Dun-B-L-T are basically lower than the oil prices in the New York-New York futures market or the spot market.
Since the Iran-Iraq War in the 20s, the United States has been trying to subvert Iran.So as to realize the attempt to peg Iran's oil to the U.S. dollar.
After Iraq's invasion of Ku-Wat, it gave the United States a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Bush sent [-] troops into Iraq's battlefield and finally won The Sea-Gulf-War, realized the strategy of entering the region for many years.
In the "September 2001-9" incident in 1, Bush Jr. finally realized the strategic plot of the United States to gain a dominant position in the Gulf region, directly controlled the production and supply of the international crude oil market, and imposed ——Lang sharpened his sword, creating hotspots in oil-producing countries such as Venezuela, China, Switzerland, and Sudan, which made the confidence in the international crude oil market fluctuate and caused oil prices to rise all the way. Emerging modernization The development speed of big countries such as China, Afghanistan, Xiongguo, and Samba is greatly restricted.
There are many main reasons for the politicization of the oil issue, including the following:
1. Oil resources are still an important strategic material that countries will compete for today and for a long time to come.The development of the world economy is inseparable from the support of energy, and the core of the energy issue is the oil issue.
It can be said which country or organization - owns or controls more oil resources.Its influence in the international community will be greater, and it will have more discourse power on the international stage; as long as the status of oil in primary energy remains unchanged, countries or organizations that own or control more oil resources will have more power in the international arena. position will become more prominent.The political tendency of the oil issue is becoming more and more obvious.
2. The limitation of resources intensifies the control of available oil and gas resources by some powerful countries or organizations.In order to control the oil and gas resources in proven, easy-to-exploit, and resource-rich countries or regions, some powerful countries or organizations will inevitably politicize the oil issue.
3. Some powerful countries or organizations hope to play a greater role in the complex energy geopolitical relations.Areas with rich oil and gas resources and complex land-marginal-political relations.Frequent outbreaks of civil - - - ethnic - - conflicts, faction - do - fight - - even civil - war.
Faced with this situation, on the one hand, certain factions, organizations, or countries need to rely on external forces to compete with their opponents; Intervention provides an excuse.
4. In the process of investment, some enterprises need the intervention of political forces in order to avoid various risks.In the process of international operation, oil and gas companies not only face the risks of legal proceedings and disputes in various countries, but also face political conflicts, economic competition, and terrorism caused by countries competing for resources. Dominance -- righteousness --- threat --- threats and other risks.
For enterprises, these risks are uncontrollable and require diplomatic coordination and support from the government.
All in all, the world is on the brink of a new war.Regardless of whether there is oil or not, countries go out to hunt for oil.
Roberts, author of Not-Declaration-War-War-Oil-Oil, argues that as these countries already compete fiercely for oil, they are increasingly looking for the last piece The race for oil and gas reserves is poised to become the dominant geo-geo-politics theme of the 21st century.
In the Caspian-Sea-region, Europeans, Xiong people, Chinese, as well as the U.S. government and major oil companies are all working hard to be able to operate in Kazakhs ———Stan and A——Serbia————— Xinjiang's large oil fields have a share of the big oil field and started a fierce battle.
During the Iraqi-Lakh war, who had the right to intervene in the oil production of Xiongguo and Ranxiguo had an open quarrel with the U.S. country.And China seeks to establish its own oil allies in the Middle East, Roberts believes: But what is more disturbing is that oil politics will trigger a new round of great power competition.These conflicts require the intervention of the United States, which will affect the economic stability of the United States and the world.
In short, the most basic fact of oil politics-political energy security is the ability to control the normal operation of the economy.Produce enough fuel and electricity at an acceptable price to meet the needs of its citizens.secure its borders.
All countries should resolve differences and conflicts arising from the oil issue through dialogue and consultation, and should not politicize the oil issue, let alone resort to force.
The oil issue is politicized.It will not help the world's energy security, but will only increase the insecurity that threatens global energy.
............................................................................................................ ..
It cannot be seen from the above description.The importance of oil to the United States can be said.If there is yes, there will be Mikin's supreme status on the earth now, and with Mikin's supreme status, the country of Mi will have enough funds to make its military strength invincible in the world, this world is invincible It’s not about the Invincible Under Heaven, nor is it the Invincible Under Heaven with a very small difference in strength between the next two. The combined strength is not the opponent of the United States.
On the earth, China is also not an opponent of the United States. Even with the military forces in the martial arts secret environment, China's strength is still not as good as that of the United States. This is a fact, and we have to admit it.
The strength of the warrior army is powerful, once it is approached by the warrior army.The troops of the United States are garbage, even if the United States sends their most advanced heavy troops.Inside are the most advanced and powerful tanks in the United States.There are fifth-generation tanks. Facing warrior troops, these heavily armed troops will still be a dead end.
The power of the heavy tank troops is very strong, but this power is only for ordinary people. In front of warriors, especially warriors who already have protective energy, this power requires a big blow. Discounted, and.The discount for this song has to be half off and then half off.
The fifth-generation heavy tank of the United States is indeed very powerful. The advanced armor on it makes it impossible for ordinary weapons to handle it. However, facing the warrior's sword energy, no matter how powerful the armor is, it will be destroyed by the warrior. , Even if warriors can't destroy the armor of these advanced heavy tanks for a while, the speed of heavy tanks is not as fast as warriors.
Before these heavy tanks had time to change the direction of the muzzle, the fighters had already reached the dead end of the design of the heavy tanks.But this time is very simple, the warrior can use all his strength to destroy the armor of the heavy tank, of course, it will take a lot of time.It is very dangerous to do this on the battlefield. After all, this heavy tank can't shoot this warrior.It doesn't mean that other tanks can't shoot warriors, so.Once this time comes, the best choice for warriors is to destroy the circuit lines or electric boards of the heavy tank.Martial arts such as fighting cattle across the mountain are enough to destroy the circuit lines and electrical panels in the heavy tank.
The second is to use something to block the muzzle of the heavy tank, so that the personnel inside the heavy tank can come out and remove these obstacles. Once the heavy tank opens the door, the warrior can choose to throw a grenade directly or kill the enemy directly. Once inside, the next thing is much easier.
Moreover, if warriors do this, they can also capture a state-of-the-art heavy tank. I believe Sheng Zheng and the others are eager for such a good thing.
Third, fighters can also destroy the engine of the heavy tank. As long as the engine of the heavy tank is destroyed, it is also used to fight cattle across the mountain. Then the heavy tank will lose its mobility and lose its mobility on the battlefield. , then the only fate of this heavy tank is to be destroyed or captured.
Of course, the damage to the captured heavy tank is still a bit big. The engine is inside the tank's parts, but it is an extremely important thing. The tank's engine is broken, and it is not a simple matter to repair it.
……..Wait, wait, there are still many such countermeasures, and these combat examples have already gone through actual combat drills. Sheng Zheng personally led the warrior troops to attack the most advanced and powerful heavy tank troops under Commander Hall. In order to truly test the power of the warrior army during the war, Commander Hall spent a lot of money in the experiment.
All the heavy tanks are the most advanced and best in China. During the exercise, they are completely based on actual combat. In order to make the exercise more realistic and close to actual combat, Commander Hall also secretly issued an order to allow some minor injuries during the exercise, which shows that Commander Hall attaches great importance to this actual combat exercise.
The results are gratifying. This time the actual combat exercise ended in less than two days. A whole division of heavy armored troops faced the attack of a regiment of warrior troops and only lasted for less than two days. In time, it was completely destroyed by the warrior troops of this regiment. If it hadn't been for the warrior troops to spend a little time encircling the heavy artillery unit of this division, I believe that the time for the end of this actual combat exercise would be even shorter.
The artillery unit is talking about the strategy of running when it gets big. Moreover, the cars in the artillery unit are very off-road. Therefore, it is still a bit difficult to find them on the battlefield in a short time and keep up with the speed of the artillery unit. .
The same actual combat exercise was organized by the Commander's Hall for a full ten times, and each time was the result of the complete annihilation of the heavy armored troops. Of course, the warrior troops were not without losses. They killed a platoon of warriors, and this was because those people saw that they were about to be wiped out by the warrior troop again. In a moment of panic, they detonated the bomb and "destroyed" the warrior troop of a platoon.
This mutual death is just the judgment of the director's office, not the real result of the mutual death. After all, this is just an actual combat exercise. Although there are casualty indicators in the command hall, no one will go crazy and kill people in the actual combat exercise. (To be continued..)
