La guerre au Moyen-Orient et la fermeture du détroit d’Ormuz mettent en lumière la vulnérabilité énergétique de la Chine. Dépendante de cette voie maritime pour près d’un tiers de ses importations de pétrole, la Chine s’expose à un risque de crise économique en cas de blocage prolongé alors qu’elle vient d’entamer son 15e plan quinquennal (2026-2030), qui redéfinit en profondeur ses priorités politiques, économiques et stratégiques. Dans ce contexte, quelles pourraient être les répercussions d’une fermeture prolongée du détroit d’Ormuz sur l’économie chinoise ? Dans quelle mesure les nouvelles priorités stratégiques définies par Pékin pourraient-elles en mesure d’amortir ce choc ? Enfin, les nouveaux partenariats établis par Pékin avec les pays dits du « Sud global » lui permettront-ils d’assoir son influence sur la scène internationale ?
