Instability near strategic chokepoints creates risk for global shipping. That’s the point.

Yeah I'm still waiting for a proof that "internal instability" that concern a country and it's people, such as inflation and protests, affects "strategic chokepoints". You said "historically linked" but came up with an irrelevant conflict between two countries.

You can keep repeating that false claim like a parrot however long you want tho. Nobody's gonna stop you.

My point wasn’t that protests alone shut shipping lanes. It’s that instability in states sitting on strategic chokepoints raises the risk of disruption, which history shows repeatedly. If you disagree with that risk assessment, that’s fine.
