There is one type of study which I have not seen, which I hope we can do something about in the months ahead. The pilot of a jet aircraft has a checklist of many dozens of questions that he must answer satisfactorily before he takes off his plane on a flight. Would it not be interesting and revealing if we had a checklist of questions we should answer systematically before we take off on a policy? There is no evidence that anyone in the audience that day followed up on Rusk’s request.
Conflict-driven disruptions of critical supply chain chokepoints have become a recurring feature of the world today—from Russia’s 2022 blockade of Ukraine’s grain exports via the Black Sea, to the Houthis’ attacks on boats in the Red Sea that began in 2023, to Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz following U.S.–Israeli strikes on Iran in 2026. That ongoing closure has increased concern about other vulnerable waterways, such as the Strait of Malacca.
