India occupies a strategic position in the Indian Ocean Region, as it sits between its main bottlenecks. In particular India controls the Western gateway into the Malacca strait through the Andaman and Nicobar archipelago. This strait is China's main strategic weakness, which makes this choke point of critical importance in the possible confrontation between the US and China. In this video we will analyze US and China's reliance on this strait and we will try to answer two major questions. How does India control China's biggest weakness? How does this influence a possible US - China conflict? ▀▀▀▀▀ For inquiries: sekishouproduction@gmail.com If you liked this video, please consider supporting the channel on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/kamome163 Many thanks to: Narration by Jasper: pdaefaul@gmail.com Many thanks to the Patreon and the Discord communities! ▀▀▀▀▀▀ Music: Premiumbeats Stock footage: Pexels Softwares: Animations made with ♥️ with Blender, Editing in DaVinci Resolve, and map analysis and editing in QGIS. ▀▀▀▀▀▀ Check out @KnowledgeRaiders If you are interested in how to make a map in Blender check out @AlaskanFX's tutorials!
