A former official of the Suez Canal Authority, who worked on ship navigation issues, has ruled out the possibility that the navigation system could be hacked after Maj. Gen. Osama Rabi, head of the Suez Canal, explicitly denied the effect of wind speed on the deviation of the giant ship Ever Given spoke of diverting the ship from its intended course.
The former Egyptian official, who did not want to be named, said that the Egyptian authorities have not revealed this scenario so far due to the inability to prove it, and because of the impossibility of technical access to the ship’s computer data.
He claimed, the decision of the Egyptian authorities to investigate the issue after the end of the crisis and smooth access to electronic data of the pilot of the giant ship Ever Given is final.
In secret meetings held at the Suez Canal to investigate the cause of the accident, the only possibility is that the ship was hacked or deliberately diverted from the route set by the captain, and the deviation due to natural factors such as strong winds from Rejected by technical experts.
The closure of the canal is an economic blow to China, the European Union, and even the oil-exporting countries.
In the meantime, only the United States suffers the least loss, because the export and import of goods to and from this country are one of the routes that do not require traffic in the Suez Canal.
Joe Biden’s outspoken stance that he will not allow China to overtake the United States and become the world’s number one power as long as he is in office reflects the critical and complex political situation between China and the United States. Meanwhile, the diversion of the ship and the closure of the important transit route of goods will be more and more in favor of the United States and to the detriment of China. The US motive for hitting China, along with speculation that the Hover Green’s naval system was hacked, highlights the US role in the ship’s sinking.
