“…The effective strategy during war at sea would be to dismantle all lines of communication and maritime trade of the enemy which could be detrimental for those countries whose identiy is 'Island' based where as less destructive for those states whose identity is 'continental' based (Vego, 2013). To avoid such situation during war, states develop peaceful and cooperative relations with their neibours.…”

The focus of global politics is shifting from the West to Asia as China plays a significant role in the ongoing competition on the global chessboard. This competition between the USA, the most powerful economy of the world, and China, an emergent powerful economy of the world, compels China to secure uninterrupted energy supplies from the Persian Gulf region for its oil driven growth. In the recent past, China’s new strategy has further cemented ties between Pakistan and China, who help each other in the changing geopolitical environment, through converging mutual interests. This paper highlights how geo-strategic positioning of Pakistan helps China fulfill its geo-strategic and geo-economic goals and how this development helps Pakistan to uplift socioeconomic development and safeguard its strategic interests in the Indian Ocean.

“…With such an approach, the ability of Russian naval hard power to apply a threat of violence is being maximized, offering Moscow the opportunity to target from the sea a wider range of the western centers of gravity. This has a tremendous strategic value since some 70% of the world's population lives within 200 miles of the coastline and 80% of the word's capitals lie within 300 miles of the sea (Vego, :184). Nevertheless, the most important aim from projecting power ashore for Russia is to destabilize the unity of the western world and enlarge the potential circle of allies with states that due to various aspects of their political systems and their governing elites wish to align with Moscow.…”

The Syrian Civil War gave the opportunity to Russia to establish itself as a pivotal strategic element in the region of the Eastern Mediterranean. This can be seen in the Russian military presence in Syria and in the new Russian maritime strategy in the Black Sea and in the Eastern Mediterranean. This articles argues that deterrence is not enough by itself to put an obstacle in Russian regional expansionism and that a new containment policy is required in order for the West to maintain the existing status in the Eastern Mediterranean.

“…Faced with Indonesia's geographical condition as stated above, Indonesia needs to have a sea control strategy, especially in four strategic chokepoints covering the Malacca Strait, Sunda Strait, Lombok Strait, and Makassar Strait. Sea Control is a condition in which there is freedom in using marine space for its benefit at a certain space and time, as well as preventing its use by opponents (Vego, 2005).…”

<p>Indonesia is a country with a water area of 6.4 million km<sup>2</sup> or about 2/3 of its territory is the sea. Geographically, Indonesia's position is very strategic because of an international shipping route on it as well as a crossing point between the continents of Asia and Australia and the Pacific and Indian oceans. This configuration of the Indonesian sea area requires strict control to meet all types of demand at all Archipelagic Sea Lanes’ choke points. Therefore, this study was conducted to answer what kind of strategy that needed in controlling the sea at Indonesia's four strategic choke points to support the Total Defense System. This study used a qualitative method with an exploratory approach because the researchers explored deeper and analyzed the objectives, resources, and methods of controlling the sea at four strategic points in Indonesia. The theory of strategy researchers used to discuss problem formulation was assisted by NVivo 12 tools in processing data and Soft System Methodology (SSM) to analyze research data. The results of the research prove that the resources used to achieve Indonesia's maritime defense in controlling the sea at Indonesia's four strategic choke points are the empowerment of power, inter-agency cooperation, and regulation-making in determining maritime defense strategies.</p>
