The Cost of Global Disorder: A War No One Can Control
本站:原文:
xiàn dài现代zhàn zhēng战争zhǐhuìpò huài破坏tǔ dì土地huìràngzhěng gè整个shì jiè世界gèngwěn dìng稳定

Modern warfare does not only destroy land; it also makes the whole world more unstable.

xiàn zài现在yī lǎng伊朗yǐ sè liè以色列dechōng tū冲突yuè lái yuè越来越gōng kāi公开dǎo dàn导弹hōng zhà轰炸duō dì多地xíng dòng行动bù duàn不断zēng jiā增加yǐ jīng已经zhǐ shì只是liǎng guó zhī jiān两国之间dewèn tí问题

Now, the conflict between Iran and Israel is becoming more open, with missiles, bombings, and operations in multiple places increasing all the time. It is no longer just a problem between the two countries.

měi guó美国zuì jìn最近dǎ jī打击yī lǎng伊朗hòujú shì局势méi yǒu没有míng xiǎn明显biàn hǎo变好shuō míng说明jūn shì lì liàng军事力量yí dìng一定néngdài lái带来zhèng zhì政治jié guǒ结果

After the United States recently struck Iran, the situation did not clearly improve, showing that military power does not necessarily bring political results.

The cost of this conflict is huge. It has not only caused many deaths, injuries, and people to leave their homes, but it has also pushed up oil prices and made transport and insurance more expensive.

huò ěr mù zī hǎi xiá霍尔木兹海峡hěnzhòng yào重要shì jiè世界shànghěnduōshí yóu石油dōuyàojīng guò经过zhè lǐ这里suǒ yǐ所以zhǐ yào只要fēng xiǎn风险biàngāoquán qiú全球shì chǎng市场jiùhuìjǐn zhāng紧张

The Strait of Hormuz is very important. A large share of the world’s oil passes through it, so whenever the risk rises, global markets become nervous.

Iran wants to prolong the war and make its opponents pay more; Israel wants to strike threats first, but that can also make the situation more dangerous.

The United States still matters, but the pressure on it is growing; China has not joined the fighting directly and is watching from the sidelines.

Now, the impact of this war has gone beyond the Middle East, affecting Europe, Asia, and the global economy.

The real question is not who wins right away, but who can bear the high cost of this long conflict.
