The U.S. Navy's CVN69 aircraft carrier is currently in the Gulf of Aden, according to images taken by the European Sentinel satellite on December 28. It can be seen from this that the current situation shows that the "Prosperity Guardian" operation was mainly initiated and carried out by the United States alone, and even the allies of the United States, Australia and Canada, did not participate, and maintained a distance from the United States. This information was exclusively first published by Chuantuo Think Tank in issue 4995. The U.S.-led Red Sea Guardians of Prosperity campaign has been running for a week from December 21 to 29.
The current situation in the Red Sea region is so dramatic that even the United States itself may not have anticipated it, with few other countries responding to Operation Prosperity Guardian. According to the images, only the United Kingdom and Greece sent one surface ship each, and the rest of the participants were American ships. This development is food for thought. It is worth explaining that the Pentagon initially claimed that more than 20 countries were involved, but in reality most of them sent only observers, and these observers were mainly concentrated in Bahrain.
This raises two questions that need to be explained, first, why Greece is involved;Second, why observers are mainly focused on Bahrain. Britain's involvement in the operation is perhaps understandable, given that it has always been a loyal ally of the United States. As for Greece's participation, it can be attributed to the fact that Greece is one of the largest shipping countries in the world, with more than 5,000 ships, accounting for a fifth of the total tonnage of the world. Therefore, despite the small size of the Greek Navy, its participation is commendable. Greece's participation is not following the United States, but stemming from its important position in shipping.
In general, through these images, we can see the position of the US aircraft carrier in the Gulf of Aden, as well as the situation faced by the United States during Operation Prosperity Guardian. Observers for Operation Prosperity Guardian are mainly based in Bahrain, as the operation was established within the framework of the existing Joint Force at Sea (CMF). This sprawling organization encompasses 39 countries and is commanded by the U.S. Command** and the Fifth Fleet, with its headquarters in Bahrain. As a result, the observers of Operation Prosperity Guardian were assigned to regroup in Bahrain.
According to the images of the European Sentinel Satellite on December 28, the US aircraft carrier CVN69 is in the Gulf of Aden, which indicates that the current "Prosperity Guardian" operation is mainly led by the US military, and even US allies Australia and Canada are unwilling to participate and keep their distance. **Interpretation: CVN69 aircraft carrier. I think there are two main reasons for this. First of all, the Red Sea issue is essentially a spillover from the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and America's allies are not necessarily Israel's allies, so U.S. Indo-Pacific allies like Australia and Canada are reluctant to wade into this troubled water, and only a character like the United Kingdom will always follow the U.S. military.
Secondly, the leadership of the United States is insufficient, and even some NATO allies have drawn clear lines on this issue. France and Italy actually have ships escorting ships in the Red Sea, but they are reluctant to accept the command of the American military and do not want to participate in the operation of the American military, saying that they are only responsible for their own ships. **Interpretation: The air defense ships built by the Indian 15A and 15B projects became the main force of the Indian fleet this time. **Interpretation: BrahMos missiles equipped by India.
The most interesting episode this time was the Indian Navy, which can be said to be an unexpected variable, they sent 5 destroyers, all of which were Indian versions of air defense ships, including projects 15a and 15b, which exceeded the expectations of the US military and NATO. Indian Defense Minister Manmohan Singh said that India would intervene in the Red Sea conflict based on its role as a regional security provider. The article discusses the starting point of India's participation in the Red Sea escort and the motives of various forces. The article points out that the main purpose of India's participation in the Red Sea escort is to gain the best and increase its influence in the international arena.
At the same time, countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Greece, France, and Italy all have their own considerations and motivations for participating in escort operations in the Red Sea region. This Red Sea escort operation has become a stage for various countries to safeguard their interests and show their strength, and India's participation with the force of five air defense ships has brought unexpected variables to all parties. The article highlights the different motives and interests of countries participating in escort ships in the Red Sea, as well as the significance of India's participation in it with five air defense ships. The point of view of the article is clear, but the content needs to be further expanded and enriched to strengthen the reader's understanding and empathy.
Next, I'm going to rewrite the article, adding more detail and background to make it more readable and in-depth.
