The U.S. Coast Guard has reported an increase in the presence of Chinese research vessels in the U.S. Arctic region, particularly near Alaska. Officials have described this as part of a three-year trend of heightened activity by Beijing's expanding fleet of so-called research vessels, including icebreakers. Currently, the Coast Guard is monitoring a total of five Chinese vessels operating in or near the U.S. Arctic. This development marks an unprecedented level of Chinese maritime activity in the area, as China continues to assert its status as a "near Arctic state."
Coast Guard officials said the presence of the Chinese vessels is consistent with a three-year trend of increased activity from Beijing’s fast-growing fleet of so-called research vessels in the U.S. Arctic. https://t.co/kO8jFpDX0V
