Need of summit for declaration of being Superpower, what is she talking about? Maybe thinking about India?
Most factories in Morbi, India's ceramics hub in the western state of Gujarat, have shut down for nearly a month due to gas shortages triggered by the Iran war, according to the local manufacturers' association.
Morbi produces about 80% of India's ceramics - mainly tiles and sanitaryware - and exports to the Middle East, Africa and Europe.
Manufacturers say they halted operations on Tuesday after supplies of propane and natural gas - key fuels for ceramics production - were squeezed.
India's ceramics industry is estimated to be worth about 750bn rupees ($8.1bn; £6bn), with Morbi at its core. The shutdown has hit around 400,000 workers linked to the sector.
This shutdown is closer to BJP heart-land.

12D chess.
These retards like Vance still do not understand that the imperial core is often the most decayed part of the entire structure.
The US is a shithole, while the semi-healthy parts of the empire used to be places like Japan and Germany, before they too started getting degraded by endless stupid policies.

Nah sorry but no, this sounds like White Australia "swarming Asiatics" alarmism to me. the Aussies getting rid of US bases would impossible because of cultural and racial reasons, and China knows that, as this comment notes
For SEA, the Malaysians and Indonesians will likely agree to distance from the US military — not that they had much engagement anyway — but Singapore and Philippines will never agree. They (we) have too many elites that are tied financially and politically to the sinking ship. Singapore in particular is not only tied with US financialisation but the whole power structure heavily relies on US/UK-educated elite "scholars" who are tested and handpicked from their teens to follow in the footsteps of Cambridge lawyer Harry Lee (as he was known before entering politics). Although they are known to hedge their bets, the Singapore ruling elite is terrified of any one influence becoming too strong. From independence, the party was a racially mixed Anglicised group designed to curb both Malay and Chinese influence, and they will default to that by instinct. A major shift in world balance of power would embolden both Islamic and Sinophone Singaporeans and upset the PAP's carefully cultivated power bases.
Philippine elites, the class, are even worse, being almost half-US citizens themselves, and would be easier to completely remove than to negotiate with.
I don't think they are reporting it but some countries are beginning to ration oil/gas already. Especially those like India or SEA who aren't wealthy for most people.
Keep in mind we are not even in week 3 yet. If nothing has changed after 6 months, things could get really ugly.
