The importance of maritime trade for the global economy can’t be understated. After all, roughly 80% of all goods transported worldwide are transported by sea. That’s why global nations continuously invest in maritime infrastructure, striving to enhance their geopolitical influence by strategically controlling critical maritime routes.
