  • Indian Strategy for the Indian Ocean
    1 Featured Image: Indian Navy destroyer INS Kochi enters Port Victoria, Seychelles. (Photo via Indian Navy spokesperson Twitter) INDIA’S STRATEGY FOR THE INDIAN OCEAN IN LIGHT OF COVID-19 AND CONFRONTATION WITH CHINA By David Scott CENTER FOR INTERNATIONAL MARITIME SECURITY (CIMSEC) SEPTEMBER 24, 2020 Setting the Scene for 2020 Indian strategy for the Indian Ocean revolves around retaining pre-eminence across the body of water, tacitly seen as India’s Ocean; a term implying if not hegemony, then at least a sort of regional leadership and regional pre- eminence. The External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar was explicit at the Indian Ocean Conference held in the Maldives in September 2019 that India’s “core interests are in Indian Ocean,” that “the fact remains that where India can really make a difference is in the Indian Ocean itself,” and that the Indian Ocean is for India “a natural arena for its influence and of overriding security consequence.” Jaishankar went on in March 2020 to argue in a speech titled “Emerging Geopolitical Landscapes” that “where maritime security is concerned, India has emerged as a key player, especially in the Indian Ocean.” Indian strategy in and for the Indian Ocean during the 2010s has been threefold: building up its naval-maritime infrastructure (bases and support 2 facilities), building up power projection assets, and strengthening relations with increasingly China-concerned powers. Indian strategy for the Indian Ocean during the 2010s has involved building up its naval infrastructure out from the Indian subcontinent. This has involved development of military facilities on the Lakshadweep archipelago off the western coast, but even more so on the larger Andaman and Nicobar archipelago on the other eastern side of the Bay of Bengal at the head of the Malacca Strait.
