“Risk of disruption to canals in global maritime logistics increases” Chairman of the Japan Foreign Trade Association. Fumiya Kokubun said that the canal is a hindrance to maritime logistics not only in the Red Sea but around the world.
He also mentioned that the Panama Canal in Central America was facing problems that restricted ship passage due to water shortages caused by a record drought. "I am concerned about whether there are strong diplomatic connections between Iran and the United States. It is risky for the two countries to develop into a confrontational structure.''
