Majid Shakri, an economic expert, in an interview about the economic and political challenges arising from the activities of Emirati ships in the Strait of Hormuz, stressed the need for a new approach to address this issue. He noted that instead of focusing on the ships, we should pay attention to the main structures of maritime routes.
Analysis of the UAE's Dual Game
The United Arab Emirates has become one of the key players in maritime trade in recent years due to its strategic position in the Strait of Hormuz. This country has managed to turn its geographical position into a commercial and economic hub. However, this situation also brings challenges. Shakri stated that the UAE is simultaneously trying to increase its influence in economic and political arenas, which could lead to more tensions in the region.

The Necessity of Targeting Main Structures
Shakri believes that to cope with this situation, analysts and policymakers need to focus on infrastructure and main structures of the routes instead of the ships. He emphasized that this approach could effectively help reduce tensions and improve economic conditions in the region. "In this regard, we must seek to identify and target key and strategic points in maritime routes to limit the UAE's influence," Shakri added.
According to this expert, adopting such an approach can help enhance the maritime and economic security of countries while preventing other nations from exploiting the strategic position of the Strait of Hormuz. Shakri also pointed out that regional and international cooperation could be effective in strengthening this approach.
Future Outlook
Ultimately, Shakri noted that in today's world, economic and trade policies are heavily influenced by global developments, and countries must always be prepared to respond to changes. "As a country, we must pay more attention to our economic policies and design solutions to tackle potential challenges and threats," was his concluding statement, highlighting the importance of attention to details and precise strategies in the international arena.
