Both, oil is a part, mainly military, Maozi's sphere of influence in Central Asia, China's back.

After the September 11 incident, cracking down on terrorism and Islamic extremism, expanding democracy, and controlling energy constituted the strategic interests of the United States in Central Asia. It has maintained close relations with Russia on the basis of traditional historical relations, but after the United States launched the war in Afghanistan in 2001, it began to seek air bases in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan in the name of "counter-terrorism," and then began to station troops in Central Asia. During the period when US troops were stationed in Central Asia, the regime in Kyrgyzstan was overthrown by the pro-Russian opposition, and the US power in Central Asia was significantly weakened.
After that, Russia also began to pay attention to the situation in Central Asia, and Russia began to exert influence in the countries of Central Asia, and restarted an air base in Kyrgyzstan to go toe-to-toe with the United States. The United States can use Central Asia to contain Russia's power in Europe and exert a certain influence in western China, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone; if Russia occupies Central Asia, it can make itself have a solid and reliable rear, so both sides are wrestling with each other in Central Asia and do not give in to each other.
Economic factors, the United States and Russia are relying on economic aid and political support to win over Central Asian countries. However, the Central Asian countries, with the exception of Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, are economically backward, lack natural resources, and their economic conditions are really lackluster, and it is by no means easy for the United States to completely penetrate the Central Asian countries, and China will not sit idly by and watch the United States do whatever it wants.

The United States has made some progress in strengthening military and security cooperation, promoting political reform, and promoting the development of the market economy in Central Asia. On the whole, the US strategy and policy toward Central Asia are:"Based on the long-term, focus on the fundamentals", emphasizing the use of economic means and"Soft power", carried out"Soft expansion", and moderately with the help of other great powers. So, it though is"Latecomers from afar"However, after several years of hard work, a relatively favorable strategic situation has been obtained.

Oil accounts for a large proportion of energy consumption, and controlling the international market is equivalent to grasping the lifeblood of the world economy. On the other hand, maintain the hegemony of the dollar.

The war in Iraq can be called an energy war! The main purpose of the United States is twofold.
The first is to use Iraq as a base to deal with Iran in order to implement the absolute hegemony of the United States in the Middle East!
The second is to use Iraq's rich oil resources to meet the conditions for US military expansion in the Middle East and maintain US hegemonism!
What kind of country is the United States, I think the landlord knows very well!

After the end of the "Cold War," the United States became the world's only "superpower" and has always tried to control the oil resources of the Middle East with its powerful economic and military might. Iraq is located in the Middle East, has an important strategic position, and is rich in oil resources, and the previous Saddam regime has become an anti-American regime since the outbreak of the Gulf War and has become the main enemy of the United States in the Middle East. After the US-British coalition overthrew Saddam's regime, it relied on its powerful military force to control Iraq's oil resources to a large extent, and the new regime it fostered and cobbled together was forced to obey the orders of the United States to a certain extent.

Oil is only the surface, and in the end, the United States maintains the hegemony of the dollar by controlling oil**.

Purpose: To arrest bin Laden and other al-Qaeda members and punish the Taliban for supporting ****.
Reason: Completely eliminate the Taliban forces behind the incident** and their allies.
Background of the war in Afghanistan:
About a week before the outbreak of the war, George W. Bush issued an ultimatum to the Taliban, demanding that they hand over high-ranking members of al-Qaeda to the United States, release all imprisoned foreigners, protect foreign journalists, diplomats, and support personnel in Afghanistan and have American personnel inspect all training camps to confirm that they were all closed.
For their part, the Taliban** refused to talk to the United States, calling it an insult to talk to non-Muslim leaders. But they also asked the United States, through their embassy in Pakistan, to provide evidence that would allow them to sue bin Laden in the Islamic courts themselves. Later, they offered to transfer bin Laden to a neutral country.
But George Bush rejected those terms. On December 19, 2000, the UN Security Council demanded that the Taliban transfer bin Laden to the United States or a third country to face prosecution in connection with the 1998 case, and to close all armed training camps or face sanctions against Afghanistan.
The United States alleged that the attack on the Taliban was in retaliation for the Taliban's failure to accede to the United States' demand to hand over bin Laden, and on the same day, the Taliban immediately attacked the United States for declaring war on the Islamic world. A clip of bin Laden's recording, released on the Arab satellite channel Al Jazeera, shows bin Laden blaming the United States for the attack. Declare that the United States will lose the battle in Afghanistan and collapse like the Soviet Union.
At the same time, bin Laden called on the Islamic world to wage war against the non-Islamic world.

The United States means that 911 hurt the United States, and the investigation found that it was bin Laden of Afghanistan who did it, so the United States wanted revenge, so it found an excuse for terrorism and hit Afghanistan. There are two points in the deeper meaning of this on the surface, one is to prepare for the future attack on Iraq, just look at the map, and it can be said that this move is quite good. It is the false way of Sun Tzu's Art of War to destroy the enemy, after controlling Afghanistan, there is control of Iraq, and then Iran, because Iraq and Iran are the most armed oil countries in the Middle East, so in the end, no one in the Middle East dares to argue with the United States, so the United States has the right to decide on the issue of oil and energy, and at the same time controls the oil in the Middle East and controls the economic lifeline of China, Japan, South Korea, and a series of countries, which can be said to be once and for all.
The second point is that Afghanistan is the backyard of China and Russia, because the United States has begun to lose control of China at sea, so it will make a 180-degree turn (quite threatening), and the effect is very good, so that China and Russia are basically surrounded by the United States strategy, and there is only the Arctic. It can be said that China has encountered the most crisis in 5,000 years, and this is not alarmist!! Wake up, people.

After the outbreak of the 911 incident in 2001, the United States launched the war in Afghanistan in the name of counter-terrorism and stationed a large number of troops in the northern border areas of Afghanistan and Pakistan for nothing more than to encircle and suppress the Taliban. In 2005, the United States again leased Kyrgyzstan's Manas International Airport in the name of counterterrorism and launched a diplomatic offensive against various Central Asian countries. From this series of related incidents, it can be seen that the United States has a deeper plan in the name of counter-terrorism, that is, to use Afghanistan as a springboard to expand its influence in Central Asia, and then realize the strategic encirclement of China and contain Russia.

Without oil, the war would return to the age of cold weapons. I'll tell you a good news, yesterday on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau on Sohu discovered an oil field twice the size of Daqing :) can guarantee that China will not have to import oil for 50 years, and the quality is very good.
You can look for this news and it's absolutely true!! Long live the Motherland!

The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau discovered an oil field twice the size of Daqing :) I also saw it, so happy, it's really good, no need to import oil from the old people.

First, in fact, it is mainly determined by geographical location, and secondly, due to security factors, these reasons determine that you need to take a detour when flying to the United States. The Earth is an ellipsoid, slightly flatter at the equator and flatter towards the poles. Then we can fly along high latitudes to shorten the flight distance. >>>More
