In this episode of Strategic Vanguard, we examine how economic power is reshaping modern deterrence and conflict. Trade dependence, supply chains, sanctions, and financial systems are now being used as strategic tools that can cripple nations without firing a single shot. From the US–China decoupling to India’s strategy of economic resilience and multi-alignment, global power competition is increasingly fought in markets, ports, and technology corridors. We explore whether economic deterrence is stabilizing global order — or quietly preparing the ground for future military conflicts.Subscribe to Strategic Vanguard:Our website- https://strategicvanguard.com/Manoj Ambat’s Personal Website- https://www.manojambat.in/Strategic Vanguard @ Youtube- https://www.youtube.com/@strategicvanguard Join us to discuss deep in Strategic Vanguard groups : https://www.strategicvanguard.com/group/strategic-vanguard-group/discussionStrategic Vanguard @ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/strategicvanguardStrategic Vanguard @X (Formerly Twitter)- https://x.com/StrategicVangu1Strategic Vanguard @ Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/strategicvanguard/Strategic Vanguard @ Quora- https://strategicvanguard.quora.com/ Strategic Vanguard @ Medium: https://medium.com/@strategicvanguard1Strategic Vanguard @ Reddit- https://www.reddit.com/r/strategicvanguard/Strategic Vanguard@ Telegram - https://t.me/strategicvanguardStrategic Vanguard@Tumblr: https://www.tumblr.com/blog/strategicvanguardStrategic Vanguard@ BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/strategicvanguard.bsky.socialStrategic Vanguard@Substack- https://strategicvanguard.substack.com/#StrategicVanguard #EconomicWarfare #GeoEconomics #IndiaStrategy#ChinaUSRivalry #SupplyChainSecurity #SanctionsPolicy #GlobalPower #strategicvanguardpodcast

Beneath the oceans lies a hidden battlefield that is rapidly becoming central to global power and national security. From undersea internet cables and energy pipelines to seabed minerals and military sensor networks, the ocean floor now carries the infrastructure that keeps modern economies and armed forces functioning.In this episode of Strategic Vanguard, we explore why the seabed is emerging as the next strategic domain of conflict. We examine how nations can disrupt connectivity and energy supplies without declaring war, how deep-sea mining is creating new geopolitical competition, and how underwater surveillance systems may transform submarine warfare itself.We also discuss China’s expanding undersea capabilities, Russia’s deep-sea operations, and what this quiet competition means for India’s maritime security in the Indian Ocean. As warfare shifts toward infrastructure and influence rather than open battles, understanding the strategic importance of the seabed becomes essential.This is not science fiction. It is the next phase of global strategic competition, unfolding silently beneath the waves.Subscribe to Strategic Vanguard:Our website- https://strategicvanguard.com/Manoj Ambat’s Personal Website- https://www.manojambat.in/Strategic Vanguard @ Youtube- https://www.youtube.com/@strategicvanguard Join us to discuss deep in Strategic Vanguard groups : https://www.strategicvanguard.com/group/strategic-vanguard-group/discussionStrategic Vanguard @ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/strategicvanguardStrategic Vanguard @X (Formerly Twitter)- https://x.com/StrategicVangu1Strategic Vanguard @ Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/strategicvanguard/Strategic Vanguard @ Quora- https://strategicvanguard.quora.com/ Strategic Vanguard @ Medium: https://medium.com/@strategicvanguard1Strategic Vanguard @ Reddit- https://www.reddit.com/r/strategicvanguard/Strategic Vanguard@ Telegram - https://t.me/strategicvanguardStrategic Vanguard@Tumblr: https://www.tumblr.com/blog/strategicvanguardStrategic Vanguard@ BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/strategicvanguard.bsky.socialStrategic Vanguard@Substack- https://strategicvanguard.substack.com/🔖 Hashtags (Balanced for Reach + Niche Authority)🎯 Primary Strategic Hashtags#StrategicVanguard#SeabedWarfare#MaritimeStrategy#NavalPower#Geopolitics

In the 21st century, wars no longer begin only on battlefields — they begin in ports, banks, supply chains, and technology corridors. Nations today can cripple rivals without firing a single shot, using trade restrictions, financial sanctions, export controls, logistics dominance, and currency leverage as strategic weapons.In this Strategic Vanguard podcast, Advocate Manoj Ambat explores how economics has transformed into a new battlefield of power and coercion. From China’s control over rare earths and manufacturing supply chains to America’s dominance of global finance, semiconductors, and sanctions regimes, economic warfare has quietly reshaped global geopolitics.This episode examines how trade dependencies create strategic vulnerabilities, how financial systems have become instruments of influence, and why future conflicts may begin with economic pressure long before military confrontation. We also analyze India’s strategic position in this evolving landscape — balancing economic growth, strategic autonomy, and national security in a multipolar world.Key themes discussed include economic warfare, supply chain geopolitics, sanctions as weapons, financial power, China’s trade strategy, US technology controls, global trade fragmentation, maritime chokepoints, digital sovereignty, and India’s geopolitical future.If you want to understand how power really operates in today’s world — beyond headlines and military hardware — this deep dive offers essential strategic insight.🏷️ HASHTAGS #EconomicWarfare#Geopolitics#StrategicVanguard#GlobalTrade#SupplyChain#Sanctions#ChinaStrategy#USPower#IndiaStrategy#WorldPolitics#DefenseAnalysis#InternationalRelations#GeoEconomics#TradeWar#EconomicPower#GlobalSecurity#IndoPacific#StrategicAffairs#PowerPolitics#FutureOfWar
