Yeah ships are now crossing the Cape instead of going through the Gulf of Aden and Red Sea.It is in The Economist:
BP just announced they won't be going through the Red Sea as well.
I see that as more passive acknowledgement and strange characterization of the crisis area but like.... that is how Yemen graduates from the conflict hot-potato that's been going on there to getting a whole coalition on its assIt is in The Economist:
BP just announced they won't be going through the Red Sea as well.
The recent escalation in reckless Houthi attacks originating from Yemen threatens the free flow of commerce, endangers innocent mariners, and violates international law. The Red Sea is a critical waterway that has been essential to freedom of navigation and a major commercial corridor that facilitates international trade. Countries that seek to uphold the foundational principle of freedom of navigation must come together to tackle the challenge posed by this non-state actor launching ballistic missiles and uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) at merchant vessels from many nations lawfully transiting international waters.
This is an international challenge that demands collective action. Therefore, today I am announcing the establishment of Operation Prosperity Guardian, an important new multinational security initiative under the umbrella of the Combined Maritime Forces and the leadership of its Task Force 153, which focuses on security in the Red Sea.
Operation Prosperity Guardian is bringing together multiple countries to include the United Kingdom, Bahrain, Canada, France, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Seychelles and Spain, to jointly address security challenges in the southern Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, with the goal of ensuring freedom of navigation for all countries and bolstering regional security and prosperity.

Oil prices and inflation are once again a risk here. The Houthis have taken everyone by surprise.
They ain't hurt nobody. Forcing countries to reroute trade is nonviolent protestyemen about to get a lot of their people destroyed - for fukking with civilians that ain't doing anything but going to work. nobody said 'coalition' with intent until they hit one ship too many then decided to step it up because clout.
