@yazoinkergrapft Yes, the United States is allowed to declare war. If it does, the sea zone immediately becomes hostile, as there are enemy surface warships in it. However, since the United States is not declaring war until the Collect Income phase, during the Combat Move, Conduct Combat, and Noncombat Move phases the sea zone is still friendly, so the United States can still occupy it freely. On Japan’s next turn, its units in the sea zone will be starting the turn in an enemy-occupied sea zone, so the normal rules for that situation apply (those units must either move away in combat movement or attack).

Should Malta be considered like an aircraft carrier with regards to movement points? I.e if an aircraft carrier was in the same sea zone as Malta, it would not cost any movement point to land on the carrier but it would to land on Malta. Any thoughts

Which game are you talking about? I will move your question to the correct forum category, then.
As you cross a border between a sea zone and a territory (incl. islands) when you land on Malta it costs one movement point.

@panther G40SE, I know the rule, just trying to work out a strategy where Malta is useful!
Thanks Panther -
Put an AB and or NB on it to start, accomplish your aim.

This is a late response but I actually sorta like the idea of allowing malta to do this, basically let fighters and tacs hit Italy without carriers. Then Malta is actually useful
