New Delhi: After the US, Japan, Australia and France, Britain has now sailed to the Indo-Pacific to improve maritime security cooperation with India and emphasize internationally-based commands after Chinese firm behavior in the region.
The UK Carrier Strike Group-21 (CSG-21), was led by a 65,000 tons of HMS Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier with fifth generation stealth fighter jets, conducting a large exercise with the Indian Navy in the bay from Bengal for the past few days.
Exercise saw 10 warships, two submarines and more than 20 aircraft gathered, with India gave birth to Frigate Frigate Ins Satpura, Destroyer Ins Ranvir, a kilo grade submarine and P-8i long-term maritime patrol aircraft, among other assets.
Strategic signaling, which came after the `quad ‘and quad-plus-france naval exercise in the Indian Ocean (IOR) region, clearly.
The United Kingdom declares a business “providing real security for our friends and credible prevention for those who try to damage global security”.
The implementation of the operational of the HMS Queen Elizabeth-LED CSG-21 girl, who will now go to the South China Sea, and the British declaration that he will permanently spread two warships in the Indo-Pacific, has compiled China.
“At a strategic level, this exercise is a muscle expression of a closer defense partnership which is estimated by Prime Minister Johnson and Modi when they agree to the Indian-India roadmap in May.
Our naval facilities in Bahrain and Oman have served as a jump for the spread of the navy The kingdom is more often throughout the IOR, “CSG-21 Commodore Commodore Steve Moorhouse told Toi.
Asked about Chinese disputes at the Indo-Pacific, especially in the South China Sea, senior officers said “freedom of navigation” was the “root” of maritime law.
The UN Convention on UNCLOS (UNCLOS) is clear, and the royal navy will continue to use their rights to freedom of navigation in international waters.
“When the British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace recently said, we did it with the spirit of confidence, not confrontation.
And just as we respect China, so we hope China respects us in return,” said Commodore Moorhouse.
“England wants a mature and positive relationship with China, based on mutual respect and trust.
There is a large enough scope for constructive involvement and cooperation.
However, when we fight for this positive relationship, we will not sacrifice our values or our security, “he added.
Simply put, the ocean and the world of the world must be open and free to use everyone.
“It doesn’t matter whether it is an English or West Indian Ocean channel, it applies the same throughout the world and this is why Britain is committed to working with the same-minded countries to enforce these rules and values not only in this indo -pectific, But in all oceans, “he added.
