%X The continuously growing demand of energy and the natural limitation of the energy resources makes today¡¯s military, economic and diplomatic strategies of every nature to be shaped by the top priority objective: the uninterrupted access to energy resources. If nowadays 40% of the world¡¯s consumer goods are transited across the Malacca Strait and 40% of the sea-transported oil transits the Hormuz Strait, the estimates made until 2030 indicate an increase of the energy needs by 45% globally, of which more than half will be due to India and China¡¯s needs, implicitly leading to an intensification of the traffic across the Indian Ocean.
