Message to China? India to join World's biggest naval drill RIMPAC | Indo-Pacific tensions

India has decided to participate in the world’s biggest maritime exercise 'Rim of the Pacific' or RIMPAC, hosted by the US. Leaders of India, Japan, Australia and the U.S met last month to keep China on check as the PLA military is expanding its footprints in the Indo-pacific region. India is sending a stealth frigate and a P8I anti-submarine warfare reconnaissance aircraft for 26-nation biennial RIMPAC exercise from June 29 to August 4 in the contested Indo-Pacific with exercises around the Hawaiian Islands and Southern California. The multilateral exercise comes at a time when China is expected to launch its third aircraft carrier (Type 003) this month. The Ukraine war has cast a long war shadow over Beijing’s objective of incorporating Taiwan using force.
