印媒：印度正寻求与日本签署军事后勤协议

 After US, France, South Korea, Singapore & Australia, India now looking to ink military logistics pact with Japan

继美国、法国、韩国、新加坡和澳大利亚之后，印度正寻求与日本签署军事后勤协议

 

NEW DELHI: India is fast inking reciprocal military logistics pacts with like-minded countries to extend its strategic and naval operational reach in the entire Indian Ocean Region (IOR) and beyond, with an eye firmly on China’s expansionist behavior in the Indo-Pacific.

新德里：印度正与志同道合的国家签署互惠军事后勤协议，以扩大其在整个印度洋地区乃至更远地区的战略和海军行动范围，同时密切关注中国在印度-太平洋地区的行为。

After similar agreements with the US, France, South Korea and Singapore, it was India’s turn to ink the mutual logistics support arrangement (MLSA) with Australia during the virtual summit between the two PMs on Thursday.

继与美国、法国、韩国和新加坡签署类似协议后，周四在两国领导人的线上峰会上，印度与澳大利亚签署了《共同后勤支持协议》(MLSA)。

That’s not all. India is set to ink a military logistics pact with Japan next, while similar agreements with Russia and UK are also being negotiated, said sources. “The MLSA will enable our warships to get refueling from Australian tankers on the high seas, while also availing of berthing, maintenance and storage facilities at Australian naval bases. It will, of course, be on a reciprocal basis,” said a source.

不止于此，消息人士称，印度下一步将与日本签署军事后勤协议，同时与俄罗斯和英国也在商谈类似协议。消息人士称：“签署MLSA后，印度军舰能在公海上通过澳大利亚油轮加油，使用澳大利亚海军基地的停泊、维护和储存设施。当然，这是在互惠基础上的。”

The Logistics Exchange Memorandum of Agreement (LEMOA) inked with the US in 2016 similarly gives India refueling facilities and access to American bases in Djibouti, Diego Garcia, Guam and Subic Bay.

2016年印度与美国签署的后勤交换备忘录(LEMOA)，印度可以使用美国的燃料补给设施，并允许印度军舰进入美国在吉布提、迭戈加西亚、关岛和苏比克湾的基地。

The one inked with France in 2018, in turn, also extends the Indian Navy’s reach in south-western IOR due to French bases in the Reunion Islands near Madagascar and Djibouti on the Horn of Africa.

2018年与法国签署的协议，也扩大了印度海军在印度洋西南部的影响力，法国在靠近非洲之角马达加斯加和吉布提的留尼汪群岛有军事基地。

“The MLSA with Australia will help us to extend the reach of our warships in southern IOR as well as the Western Pacific region. The region south of the Indonesian Straits is also important for us,” said the source.

消息人士称:“与澳大利亚的MLSA协议将帮助我们扩大印度军舰在南印度洋和西太平洋地区的活动范围。印尼海峡以南地区对我们也很重要。”

The pacts are crucial for India in the backdrop of China fast expanding its strategic footprint in the IOR after its first overseas military base at Djibouti became operational in August 2017.

2017年8月，中国在吉布提的首个海外军事基地投入使用，在印度洋区域战略影响迅速扩大，在这种背景下，这些协议对印度至关重要。

China, of course, also has access to Karachi and Gwadar ports in Pakistan for turnaround facilities for its submarines and warships. It is also trying for military bases in Cambodia, Vanuatu and other countries to further consolidate its presence in the Indo-Pacific.

中国可以使用巴基斯坦的卡拉奇和瓜达尔港，为其潜艇和军舰提供补给。还试图在柬埔寨、瓦努阿图等国家建立军事基地，以进一步巩固其在印度-太平洋地区的存在。

Closer to India, China has six to eight warships deployed in the IOR at any given time. Furiously modernizing its naval forces, from long-range nuclear ballistic missiles and anti-ship cruise missiles to submarines and aircraft carriers, China has commissioned well over 80 warships in the last six years.

在靠近印度的地区，中国随时都有6到8艘军舰部署在印度洋地区。从远程核弹道导弹、反舰巡航导弹到潜艇和航空母舰，中国海军正在大力现代化，在过去六年中，中国已经服役了80多艘军舰。

Though India is yet to formally invite Australia to join the trilateral Malabar naval exercise it conducts with the US and Japan, India is steadily cranking up its bilateral military engagements with the country.

尽管印度尚未正式邀请澳大利亚参加其与美国和日本举行的马拉巴尔三边海军演习，但印度正稳步加强与澳大利亚的双边军事接触。
