India dispatches warship to Maldives for joint surveillance of Exclusive Economic Zone

印度派遣军舰前往马尔代夫共同监管专属经济区。

NEW DELHI: In an indication of a slight upswing in bilateral military ties after a distinct chill, India has dispatched a warship to Maldives to undertake joint surveillance and patrol of the archipelago’s sprawling Exclusive Economic Zone.

新德里：在两国关系一度陷入冰点后，印度派遣了一艘军舰前往马尔代夫，对这个群岛庞大的专属经济区进行联合监视和巡逻，这表明两国军事关系略有好转。

Two officers and eight sailors from the Indian Navy’s elite marine commandoes wing are also currently at Maafilhafushi in Maldives, which is 145 km north of Male, to train its personnel in diving and tactics under the second such asymmetric warfare training exercise called “Ekatha” from April 28 to May 15.

印度海军的精英海军突击队翼的两名军官和八名海员目前也在位于马累以北145公里的马尔代夫Maafilhafushi，在4月28日到5月15日第二次群岛战事训练演习训练“Ekatha”中对海员进行潜水和战术训练。

“It is an endeavor of the Indian government and Navy to ensure safety and security of the vast EEZ of the island nation,” said Navy spokesperson Captain D K Sharma on Friday.

海军发言人D K 沙玛周五说，“这是印度政府和海军的努力，以确保这个岛国专属经济区的安全。”

Offshore patrol vessel INS Sumedha will undertake an operational turn-around at Male on May 11-12, which will involve training and embarkation of some personnel from the Maldives National Defence Forces (MNDF). The warship will then undertake the joint EEZ surveillance from May 12 to 15.

海上巡逻船INS Sumedha将于5月11日至12日在马累巡逻，将进行训练。舰艇将在5月12日至15日进行联合专属经济区监控。

Bilateral ties between the two countries had soured after Maldivian President Abdulla Yameen on February 5 declared emergency in the archipelago following an order by the country's Supreme Court to release a group of opposition leaders convicted in widely criticized trials.

2月5日，马尔代夫总统阿卜杜拉•亚明在该国最高法院下令释放一群反对派领导人后，两国关系恶化了。

Maldives had subsequently declined India's invitation to participate in its eight-day mega naval conclave called “Milan” at the Andaman and Nicobar Islands from March 6 to 13. Maldives had later also asked the Indian government to take back one of its two Dhruv advanced light helicopters (ALHs) gifted to the archipelago, as was first reported by TOI in April.

马尔代夫随后拒绝了印度的邀请，印方邀请马方参加3月6日至13日在安达曼和尼科巴群岛举行的为期8天的“米兰”海军会议。随后，马尔代夫又要求印度政府收回其两架北极星轻型直升机中的一架。《印度时报》在今年4月报道过这一事件。

With an eye firmly on , India has provided military aid, training, “capacity-building” and EEZ surveillance to Maldives over the last several years. Apart from gifting a fast-attack craft, India has stationed six pilots and over a dozen ground personnel in the archipelago to operate the ALHs and help the MNDF.

在过去的几年中，印度一直监视，向马尔代夫提供了军事援助、训练、“军力建设”和专属经济区监管。除了提供快速反击的武器，印度还派驻了六名飞行员和十多名地面人员在群岛上操作轻型直升机、帮助马尔代夫国防部。

It is puzzling why this sudden change in their attitude. Yet, it is good for both countries, if they continue the friendly behaviour.

他们的态度改变之快太让人吃惊了。不过如果双方继续相互示好，这对两个国家都好。
