America's Despair; A request from the Group of 20 to protect shipping lanes US Secretary of State Marco Rubio wrote in X: At the G20 foreign ministers' meeting today, I clearly emphasized that maritime security and food security are the foundations of economic security. Despite the fact that Washington's invasion of Iranian territory caused the insecurity of the Strait of Hormuz and the disruption of the global food and energy supply chain, the US Secretary of State added: The US, as part of the "America First" agenda, encourages its partners to protect the shipping lanes, strengthen the geopolitical security of the economic crisis and reduce the economic consequences.
