The first stop is the Aleutian Islands, where a combined patrol of Chinese and Russian military vessels were detected earlier this summer
Canada is deploying two warships to the Indo-Pacific, the second and third Canadian military vessels dispatched to the region this year in keeping with a commitment to bolster the country’s presence there.
Two weeks ago in that same area, off the coast of Alaska, a combined patrol of Chinese and Russian military naval vessels were detected. The two countries have strengthened ties since Russia invaded Ukraine. According to military experts cited by the The Wall Street Journal, this was the largest such flotilla to approach U.S. territory.
After the exercise, HMCS Ottawa will operate in southeast Asia. Its exact assignments will be determined later.
The term Indo-Pacific reflects the way many Western countries have reframed their engagement with the Asia-Pacific region. These governments are now working to build common cause between India and neighbouring countries that have burgeoning middle-class populations and a shared interest in addressing China’s growing influence in the region.
