In the South China Sea, China is making trouble for other countries and to end its dominance, the whole world is preparing to teach it a lesson. In view of this, there can be an exercise to encircle China from here, making the sea area of Andaman and Nicobar a strategic center. Indeed, this has been suggested in an article published in Modern Diplomacy.
The article noted that the region’s maritime base can be used as a strategic base to respond to China’s antics. It has been named the ‘chain of maritime hubs for the siege of China’. Geetanjali Sinha Roy’s article mentions several incidents of Chinese attacks from sea and land.
He suggested that one way to encircle China could be to turn the fully equipped Andaman sea bases into strategic posts, which would help all countries to monitor China’s maritime activities and collectively. .
Gitanjali has referred to several incidents of Chinese attacks. In April this year, a Chinese vessel sank a Vietnamese fishing vessel into the South China Sea. There was a confrontation between the Malaysian oil exploration ship and the Chinese ship in the Special Economic Zone of Malaysia. In July, Chinese Coast Guard ships infiltrated the Japanese maritime area twice.
