ASIA: Why the India-Pakistan conflict could choke global supply chain

ASIA: Why the India-Pakistan conflict could choke global supply chain | ASIES | Scoop.it

In the meantime, during the tense world situation, another conflict emerged: India-Pakistan. The long-standing relationship of foes has again come to a crossroads. Many analysts made some comments on its geopolitical implications; some said that it will lead to great tension in the region, thus threatening the security within both countries and the neighboring countries around them. However, in this article, the angle that will be used is not the geopolitical implications lens, but rather its economic implications, specifically its impact on the global supply chain. As we know, the location of these two countries is strategic, with India also one of the top players in today’s global supply chain network; thus, a rising tension in the region can lead to a greater implication on the global supply chain. Henceforth, this is the issue that will be discussed in this writing.

Au regard de la haute importance qu’elle attache au respect de l’intégrité territoriale des sujets de droit international, la cité-État de l’Asie du Sud-Est devrait, théoriquement du moins, avoir des positions très dures contre la Russie.
