India Wants Freedom Of Navigation In The Asia Pacific Region: Rajnath Singh
Delhi/Hyderabad, Nov 2 (Maxim News): Defence minister Rajnath Singh said that India wants freedom of navigation and inclusiveness in the Asia-Pacific region. He made it clear that any restrictive policies will not be tolerated. He was addressing the Asian Defence ministers Meeting Plus (ADMM-Plus) conclave in Kuala Lumpur. “India reaffirms its faith and trust in the rule of law.’
India has full faith in the United Nations Convention On the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), in particular. India’s aspiration for freedom of navigation in the Indo-Pacific region is not a decision taken against any country. We are adopting this policy for the common security and interests of the countries of this region.
This region should be free from any restrictions or use of force. Security in the future will not depend solely on military capability. It will depend on sharing resources, on digital and physical infrastructure, and on jointly addressing humanitarian crises. he said. Rajnath Singh’s comments have gained significance in the context of China’s aggressive military buildup in the South China Sea and threats to the countries in the region.

He called for a reorientation for the comprehensive security of the region under ASEAN leadership. He assured that India will work more closely with ASEAN to safeguard mutual interests. He said that India considers defense cooperation with ASEAN plus countries to be for peace, stability and capacity building in the region.
