There is nothing wrong with saying that hypocrisy is better than the truly wicked, especially for India.
The first thing the new Maldives did after taking office was to withdraw the Indian troops, and India agreed to the Maldives' request because it was worried about its national image, and four months later, on February 2, India will leave the Maldives in two months, starting from March.
On the surface, India behaved very gentlemanly, and although India was reluctant to retreat, on the surface, it was very cooperative. However, hypocrisy is hypocrisy after all and cannot last long, so at the same time that the evacuation plan was announced, Indian Maritime Patrol members boarded a Maldivian fishing boat in the Maldives Special Administrative Region for no reason, which is absolutely illegal under international law.
How could such a coincidence happen? Obviously not, India is now unhappy and wants to cause some trouble for the Maldives, India is hypocritical, but their goal is much bigger.
India's actions in the Indian Ocean in the past few days are really weird.
When the Chinese scientific research ship anchored at the Maldives dock, India was worried about its own ***.
Then, under the pretext of the rampant war in the Middle East, India sent a large number of warships to the Arabian Sea, but did not participate in the American escort.
Not long ago, the United States also adopted a plan to provide India with more than 30 MQ-9B unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.
India's three actions were all directed at the Indian Ocean, and it is clear that strengthening its control over the Indian Ocean has become a major national strategy for India.
The Maldives is located in the hinterland of the Indian Ocean, and ships from the Red Sea to Malacca basically pass through the Maldives, and its unique geographical advantages make the Maldives more strategically important in the world than the Strait of Malacca, which is controlled by the United States.
Seeing this scene, India was also eager to try and made some arrangements for the Maldives. The opposition in the Maldives, for example, is trying to ** Obama, and his biggest opposition is the local forces supported by India.
Some of them called on Obama to apologize to India for the comments he made about India during his visit to China, while others declared that "pro-China and anti-India" would be detrimental to the long-term development of the country. In the Maldives, there is a well-known proverb that says, "He who kneels on the ground for a long time will never get up." ”
Therefore, judging from the current situation, it is very likely that the Indian coastal guard will attack the Maldives ships for the next action, and its ultimate goal is likely to be to encroach on the maritime rights of the Maldives, or it will hit the Maldives and plunge the Maldives into a new danger.
If India really makes any moves, China, which has close ties with the Maldives, will certainly not sit idly by, whether it is internationally or diplomatically, we will support the Maldives.
In addition, India's expansion into the Indian Ocean presents an opportunity for China. The U.S. ** team in the Strait of Malacca was originally a nail in China's throat, which can be said to be a major strategic issue, and India's move has caused dissatisfaction among some small countries, and even turmoil in the entire region. In addition, a security facility similar to the seaport in Djibouti will be built in the Maldives.
