The latter two have 24% or more of its exports pass through the strait. China and Japan are the most reliant on the Taiwan Strait for both imports and exports, specifically imports. Almost a third of both countries’ imports pass through the Taiwan Strait. Source: Visual Capitalist, www.zerohedge.com
