# What are the emerging geopolitical risks for India's trade routes in 2026?

Given the shifting alliances in the Indo-Pacific and the Red Sea situation, I am trying to map out what trade route vulnerabilities India might face by 2026. Beyond the traditional concerns around the Strait of Malacca, are there new chokepoints or regional conflicts that could disrupt our import-export corridors? I would appreciate insights on how the government is diversifying supply chains in response.
