Chapter 1127 Development opportunities brought by war

Gwadar Port.

It was extremely busy at this time.

Trains transported goods to this port one by one, and there were fully armed mercenaries at the port.

The American responsible for the delivery of goods was lightly confirming the supplies and then loading the supplies onto the supply ship.

The outbreak of war, the consumption of weapons, ammunition and supplies was greater than expected.

So many weapons, ammunition and supplies, naturally, could not all be transported from the United States, and the United States did not have so many industries.

Therefore, in the era of economic globalization, Americans took advantage of the convenience of purchasing from all over the world and purchased from nearby.

The daily consumption of body bags, military uniforms, canned fruits, canned beef, instant noodles, etc. is very astonishing.

Some are transported directly to Turkey by merchants, and some are transported by the US military from nearby ports.

Of course, even fuel is loaded from the ‘Qeshm Oil Terminal’.

All Middle Eastern countries are now imposing an oil embargo on them, and they can only import oil from the nearby Qeshm Oil Terminal.

It’s just that the fuel is a little expensive.

Pakistan took advantage of this opportunity to make a small profit in private, but on the surface it still maintained the same attitude as Saudi Arabia.

After all, Pakistan is also a member of the Islamic world.

In the Arabian Sea, China's second aircraft carrier fleet is escorting passing merchant ships and cracking down on pirates on the route.

Of course, it also prevents some people from getting too excited and doing something irrational.

The port of Djibouti is a naval logistics supply base and the largest port of Panshan Group in Africa. Many import and export materials are shipped from here.

In the past 20 years, Djibouti's economy has made rapid progress. According to the exchange rate, Djibouti's per capita GDP has exceeded the level of US$10,000.

Djibouti is now also the best place for economic development in Africa.

Although Djibouti has a small land area of ​​only 23,200 square kilometers and a population of only 806,400, it has 3 million foreign population.

In Djibouti, you can see high-rise buildings, wide roads, busy traffic, and many shopping malls.

Djibouti has some industries, but not many. What is developed here is international trade and tourism.

The whole Djibouti is divided into one city and five districts. After all, Djibouti is not big, and the districts are divided into streets, and the streets are divided into villages and communities.

Djibouti is located on the west coast of the Gulf of Aden in northeastern Africa. It is located at the transportation hub of Europe, Asia and Africa, and is the throat of the Red Sea entering the Indian Ocean. Thanks to its geopolitical strategy, Djibouti has enjoyed a lot of benefits.

At this time, the port is loading processed flour, corn, wheat, rice, mutton, beef, and aquatic products.

The Americans in charge of purchasing are smiling. These loaders are not loading goods, but dollars.

The benefits here are quite large.

In the eight years of the Clinton era, they rarely had such opportunities.

It was only since 2001 that everyone had this rare opportunity, and it is natural to make a fortune.

Who knows if the people who come up in the future will be like Clinton.

The goods here can be supplied to the aircraft carrier battle group in the Arabian Sea, or they can be transported to the Red Sea through the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean Sea, and supplied to the aircraft carrier battle group in the Mediterranean Sea or the joint forces in Turkey.

Of course, due to Egypt's policy, warships cannot pass through the Suez Canal now, and they must pass through civilian merchant ships.

Green watched a ship start to leave the port, as if he saw tens of thousands of dollars entering his pocket.

Of course, this does not mean that the profit of this ship of goods is only 10,000 US dollars. In fact, the profit of a ship of goods is much more, but there are too many people to share the profit, and he can only share 10,000 US dollars.

Green is very comfortable. He hopes that this war will last longer, so that he can retire and live a rich life.

As for the American soldiers who died in the war, Green doesn't care at all. Anyway, he is a logistics person, not a combat soldier, and it is not his turn to die.

It has been the third day since the outbreak of the Iraq War.

Even in Djibouti, you can see news about the Iraq War. Djibouti TV, radio, newspaper news, and the Internet are all about the Iraq War.

The news from Djibouti is not as critical of the United States as Saudi Arabia and other countries, but is relatively objective.

Not only Djibouti benefits, but also Somalia, Tanzania and other countries benefit.

Their industrial capacity is not strong, they only have some industries, and this Iraq war has brought them a rare opportunity.

Large orders allow various factories to open up production.

Moreover, the surge in international crude oil prices and the rise in natural gas prices have greatly increased their energy export income.

Especially Somalia, Kenya and Tanzania have received a large number of orders this time.

The money of the Americans seems to be not money, and the US dollars are constantly falling.

Since November last year, the orders from the Americans have increased significantly, and in January this year, the orders are even more.

This has greatly increased the foreign exchange reserves of these African countries, and the entire economy is thriving.

War has brought disasters to the warring countries, but it has also brought development opportunities to some countries.

Just like Turkey, it has been hit by missiles and bombs, but in fact Turkey is also making money.

The military base rental fee is just a small amount of money, and the $8 billion exempted by the Americans is also just a small amount of money.

Since the Americans transferred troops to Turkey, the first thing that developed at the military base was the red-light district. The dollars in the pockets of every American soldier have been flowing into the pockets of Turkey. These American soldiers come out to be cool and always wave dollars.

In addition to hundreds of thousands of joint forces and a large number of logistics personnel, the daily food, drink, defecation and urination are an astonishing expense. Even if not all of them are given to Turkey, Turkey still makes a lot of money.

Turkey asked NATO to activate the collective defense clause, but in fact, on the third day of the outbreak of the Iraq War, Turkey did not declare war on Iraq.

It is because Turkey can earn more without declaring war. Once Turkey declares war on Iraq, it will not be able to earn a lot of money.

It may even be because of the declaration of war that the Syrian army and the Arab coalition forces increase the troops deployed on the border. At that time, Turkey will have to mobilize more troops to the border to prevent the outbreak of war.

Similarly, Russia, Ukraine and other countries have also obtained rare development opportunities in this Iraq War.

Russia's energy export revenue has increased significantly, and the profit here is not as simple as doubling. Moreover, Russia's arms exports were previously exported to Iraq in large quantities. After the outbreak of the Iraq War, Russia continued to export weapons and ammunition to Iraq, some through land routes, and some directly using strategic transport aircraft. For this reason, it did not hesitate to engage in a war of words with the Americans.

Ukraine exports food and other products to Turkey.

Even in Europe, it is not only because of the harm caused by the rise in oil and natural gas prices, but European military enterprises have also made profits from US military purchase orders. (End of this chapter)
